Description-en: GNOME library to access AppStream services
AppStream is a cross-distribution effort for creating and sharing
metadata about software components available in the package repositories
of a distribution.
.
This package contains a GObject-based library to read and write AppStream
XML metadata and retrieve additional data such as screenshots.
.
As opposed to libappstream, this library does not use an on-disk cache but
reads data directly from the XML or DEP-11 YAML files.
