Source-reported description

The fullest retained description is shown with its source. Distribution packaging descriptions may include downstream details.

appstream-generator is a tool to generate distribution metadata from package repositories. It will extract icons, download screenshots, validate and transform the metadata, and return XML or YAML files that can be read by AppStream clients, such as software centers. It will also generate issue reports as JSON documents and HTML pages.
