It seems like RPM expects metainfo,xml in /usr/share/metainfo and appdata.xml in /usr/share/appdata... Which I think is wrong. CCing hughsie for advise ;) I think either can go in either place, although /usr/share/metainfo is the non-deprecated location. Fixed as of rpm 4.14.0-rc1 *** Bug 1493204 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Hi Igor, Sorry I did not see this duplicate because it is closed. So do you plan to backport the fix to F27, where the problem still exists? (In reply to Mat Booth from comment #6) > Hi Igor, > > Sorry I did not see this duplicate because it is closed.

And we are in Freeze period. Hmm, okay, I guess I can wait until after F27 beta. Or consider adding buildroot override... :-) This still does not look correct to me. rpm-build-4.14.0-3.fc28.x86_64 generates two metainfo() provides now. One correct and one empty: $ rpm -q --provides -p noarch/gscan2pdf-1.8.8-1.fc28.noarch.rpm |grep metainfo metainfo() metainfo(gscan2pdf.appdata.xml) (Please note the gscan2pdf.spec has been modified to work around it.)

One correct and one empty: This is expected. This is done for faster lookup of provides.
