Description Anna Vyalkova 2023-11-27 12:53:35 UTC 
Sometimes the build system (PEP517, Cargo, Go) can't install AppStream metadata
files.

I'd like to have a typo-prone helper function that puts files in
/usr/share/metainfo.

Will be helpful if FreeDesktop decides to change the directory name once again.
