Description: Library to access AppStream services (development files)
AppStream is a metadata specification which permits software components to
provide information about themselves to automated systems and end-users
before the software is actually installed.
This permits informative displays of new applications to users in software
centers, as well as allowing a system to make decisions on which new software
a user might want to install (e.g. missing firmware or media handlers).
.
This package contains development files necessary to develop
software management tools which use the AppStream library.
