Seb, by the way, appstream-glib will probably cause several packages to FTBFS because the new version has increased the validation requirements. So projects blindly running `appstream-util validate` in their test suite may need to be updated. One workaround is to use `appstream-util validate-relax` but actually fixing the AppStream metadata is better.

I found a project today, gpaste, which got the appstream validation test "for free" by using the @APPSTREAM_XML_RULES@ autotools macro from https://github.com/hughsie/appstream-glib/blob/master/data/appstream-xml.m4 . See https://bugs.debian.org/941731
