Warnings

  • no-metainfo
    This software component is missing a <a href="https://freedesktop.org/software/appstream/docs/chap-Metadata.html#sect-Metadata-GenericComponent">MetaInfo file</a> to provide metadata.<br/> We currently took some data from its desktop-entry file and the long description of the package it is located in.<br/> This has several disadvantages, like poor markup, too technical descriptions for users of software centers, different components having the same description, etc.<br/> Additionally, a lot of software with desktop-entry files should either not be installable and searchable via the software catalog (like desktop-specific settings applications) or be tagged accordingly via MetaInfo files.<br/> Please consider to either hide this desktop-entry file from AppStream by adding a <code>X-AppStream-Ignore=true</code> field to it, or to write a MetaInfo file for this component and send it upstream.<br/> Generating components from non-MetaInfo files is <b>deprecated</b>, if you do not add a MetaInfo file, this software may vanish from the metadata catalog (and if it is a GUI application, no longer be visible in software centers) in a future distribution release.<br> You can consult the <a href="http://freedesktop.org/software/appstream/docs/chap-Quickstart.html">MetaInfo quickstart guides</a> for more information on how to write a MetaInfo file, or file a bug with the upstream author of this software component.
