Improve metadata for appstream.

[darkshram]

Modified appdata file to pass full validation with 'appstream-util validate-strict'.

Before:

appstream-util validate-strict io.github.pragha_music_player.metainfo.xml
io.github.pragha_music_player.metainfo.xml: FAILED:
• style-invalid         : Content before <ul> is too short [218], at least 300 characters required
• translations-required  : <name> has no translations
• translations-required  : <summary> has no translations
• translations-required  : <description> has no translations
Validation of files failed

After:

appstream-util validate-strict data/io.github.pragha_music_player.metainfo.xml 
data/io.github.pragha_music_player.metainfo.xml: OK

Hi @darkshram I like the changes, except the translations that must be done by gettext and transifex. :wink:

Do you want to try? :grimacing:

[darkshram]

I'll try in a few days. I have a little tight schedule. io.github.pragha_music_player.metainfo.xml will need to be renamed to io.github.pragha_music_player.metainfo.xml.in and to modify Makefile to do the rest. <name>, <summary> and <description> tags just need to be replaced with <_name>, <_summary> and <_description> and obviously have an entry in the pot and po files. For the time being, just remove the lines with xml:lang and modify whatever yo need, so pragha's appdata will look awesome in app stores. Appdata will validate Ok with 'appstream-util validate' instead of 'appstream-util validate-strict' (only validate-strict requires <name>, <summary> and <description> to have translations).

Hi @darkshram Wow, Thank you for answering so quickly. I'm doing the changes form translation with gettex. Wait some minutes. :wink:

Don't worry. The goal was to improve visibility of pragha in app stores.

Keywords may be localized too. I would recommend to add 'player'.

  <keywords>
    <_keyword>audio</keyword>
    <_keyword>multimedia</keyword>
    <_keyword>player</keyword>
  </keywords>

If you add 'Keywords' key to the desktop file too, you may reuse localizations.
