GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 736859
Please consider committing and installing the supplied AppData file
Last modified: 2014-10-12 19:32:24 UTC
Please consider installing this AppData file: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hughsie/fedora-appstream/master/appdata-extra/desktop/org.gnome.Screenshot.appdata.xml This is used in GNOME and KDE software installers to add the application description and some screenshots. We'd love to showcase more applications, but without the extra data file we can't. The AppData file needs to be installed to /usr/share/appdata/ on Linux and the basename needs to match the .desktop basename. It would also be great if you could integrate the file with your translation system (e.g. intltool) to make the descriptions translated. See http://people.freedesktop.org/~hughsient/appdata/ for more details; thanks! Richard
You'll have to ask for a freeze break, since this will bring in new strings. Probably better to hold this until .1, for that reason
I think just push this post-branch and then we can work on the screenshots and wording a bit. For f21 we're using the AppData file in fedora-appstream.
Richard, I just branched gnome-screenshot for 3.14, so feel free to push the appdata file directly to git master. Looking at the one you have linked to in the first comment, I see a lot of FIXMEs; could you please remove/fix them before pushing? Thanks!
I've pushed a more complete patch to master; thanks! commit 33f0938a43f872defc53cb42d538fdfc00f4e1e7 Author: Richard Hughes <richard@hughsie.com> Date: Sun Oct 12 20:04:14 2014 +0100 Add an AppData file Resolves: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=736859
