Appdata file for gobby05

Hi,

Please find an appdata file for gobby attached. Can you please send it upstream whenever you have the cycles?

Thanks,
Ankur

What does upstream need to do with it? Just add it to the tarball somewhere? Does it need to be installed in the file system? Is there a howto/tutorial link that I can point upstream to?

http://people.freedesktop.org/~hughsient/appdata/ says that files should be shipped in /usr/share/appdata/%{id}.appdata.xml.

Upstream can include the appdata file in the next release and modify the build process to install it into /usr/share/appdata, as you've seen on the above mentioned link.

File upstream:
http://gobby.0x539.de/trac/ticket/611

If you need this to be included in the Fedora package anytime soon (there were no upstream releases for about two years), please add a patch for autotools or adjust it with provenpackager power if available.
