15.0 > Desktop > AppStream (1.1.6)

AppStream is a cross-distribution effort for enhancing the way we
interact with the software repositories provided by (Linux)
distributions by standardizing software component metadata.

It provides the foundation to build software-center applications, by
providing metadata necessary for an application-centric view on package
repositories. AppStream additionally provides specifications for things
like an unified software metadata database, screenshot services and
various other things needed to create user-friendly application-
centers for (Linux) distributions.

All documentation/manpages have been disabled in this SlackBuild
as they are not compatible on slackware-15.0. You can find the
docs at: http://www.freedesktop.org/software/appstream/docs/
