Draft until getsolus/packages#5519 is merged |
We are nuking our use of `appstream-glib` and `appstream-builder`. Explain how to run `appstreamcli compose` on a single package as well as running `appstream-generator` against a repository. The https://github.com/getsolus/solus-appstream-data repo will be archived so any relevant docs from there will need to be moved over. The "debugging failures" section will likely need to be expanded but due to `appstream-generator` being less anal and better supporting the spec some previous issues may not apply.
