Unexpected warnings for 'appstream validate' on components with merge="append" #645

Open sidt4 opened 2 months ago

sidt4 commented 2 months ago

appstreamcli validate support for components with merge="append" was added in https://github.com/ximion/appstream/issues/455.

Now, running validation on org.gnome.App-list.xml.txt obtained from https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-app-list/ results in the following warnings.

$ appstreamcli validate _build/org.gnome.App-list.xml

I guess except for nonstandard-gnome-extension kudos, validation should not report any warnings.

$ appstreamcli --version
