Bug#1076993: qhimdtransfer: Add Appstream metainfo announcing HW support

[Petter Reinholdtsen]

Package: qhimdtransfer
Version: 0.9.16-2
Tags: patch
User: ***@hungry.com
Usertags: appstream-modalias

Here is a patch to add Appstream metainfo XML announcing the hardware
handled by this package.

Including this information in the package will ensure programs mapping
hardware to packages using Appstream information, like the isenkram
package, will know that this package is useful on machines where the
hardware is discovered.

Note, this also applies to the minidisk-utils package.

This is a useful way to check the appstream metainfo:

appstreamcli validate-tree --explain debian/qhimdtransfer
appstreamcli validate-tree --explain debian/minidisk-utils

[Petter Reinholdtsen]

Dear John Paul Adrian Glaubitz,

Is there any hope to have a package included in Debian with Appstream
metadata XML announcing HW support any time soon? Anything more I can
do to help make it happen?

[Petter Reinholdtsen]

Is it OK for me to NMU the AppStream information into unstable?

I will do it myself this week. I had lots of stress the past months which has settled now.

Thanks,
Adrian

Thank you very much.

30 hardcoded entries left in isenkram now. Your upload will bring it
down to 29. 134 entries outside isenkram, in AppStream. :)

OK, good to know. Thanks for the insight.
