Package: octave
Version: 4.0.2-1~bpo8+1
Severity: wishlist
The Debian package “octave” should contain AppStream metadata. [1] This
will make Octave available in software centers such as GNOME software and KDE
discovery. [2]
The upstream version compiles a file etc/icons/octave.appdata.xml, which should
be placed in /usr/share/metainfo/.
As soon as the AppStream information is in place, there are other Octave
packages, which can install AppStream data and register as an extension to
Octave. [3]
