Description Michael Biebl 2018-08-11 15:18:44 UTC 
When building network-manager-pptp on Debian, lintian complains:

appstream-metadata-in-legacy-location
  usr/share/appdata/network-manager-pptp.metainfo.xml

AppStream metadata file was found in /usr/share/appdata/. The AppStream XML files should be placed in /usr/share/metainfo/.

Refer to https://wiki.debian.org/AppStream/Guidelines for details.
