Dear Maintainer,
Since the release of version 2.119.0, the package trackers for many
(possibly all)
packages that have Appstream metadata are showing the warning
"appstream-metadata-validation-failed".
However, the metadata is valid according to
"appstreamcli validate" & "appstream-util validate".
The link in the tag notes
https://wiki.debian.org/AppStream/Guidelines
does not contain any clues as to what might be the problem here.
If these are not false positives,
please provide information on what maintainers are expected to do about
them.
Appstream is an optional upstream feature.
Please consider introducing Appstream related tags at a lower severity
than Warning.
Regards,
Peter
Hi,
Thanks for reporting this issue. The lintian tag message says the
command you should run is `appstreamcli validate-tree --no-net` and not
`appstreamcli validate`.
Can you try that instead?
As for more information, the wiki page refers to
https://appstream.debian.org/, which seems to give detailed information
about issues flagged.
Cheers,
