libappstream5

Description

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 a GObject-based library to access AppStream services, like the software component metadata pool. It also contains functions for reading, writing and transforming AppStream metadata.
