Ways to do it:

  1. Given that we already decompress each AppBundle's files, what about using their internal appstream xml file if there is one?
  2. Scrap from another, larger, AppStream components db?
  3. What else?

For anyone looking to contribute, the program that generates our metadata automatically based on the program's name, is at: https://github.com/xplshn/pelf/blob/pelf-ng/cmd/misc/appstream_helper/appstream-helper.go
