It appears that the appstream project no longer supports `translatable=no` properties, and gettext extract them as translatable. I opened an issue to inform about the situation, but `translatable=no` properties are not accepted by developers. You can find the issue here: `ximion/appstream#623 **Please test your script or string extraction process before merging this PR.** > In MetaInfo files, each individual paragraph of a description > (or enumerated entry) is translated individually, however, > you can only exclude the complete block from being translated > by adding `translate="no"` to the description element.

Add vcs-browser and translate URLs to show source code and translation repositories.
> The `<translation/>` tag is an optional tag which can be added to specify the translation domain used for this software component. It may be used by the AppStream distro metadata generator to determine the translation status of the respective software (e.g. which languages the software is translated into and how complete the translations are). https://www.freedesktop.org/software/appstream/docs/chap-Metadata.html#tag-translation
Flathub requires a developer tag and developer ID. Also Appstream decided to use rdns structure for developer ID. It allows reverse-dns IDs like sh.cozy, de.geigi or Fediverse handle (like @user@example.org) > A developer tag with a name child tag must be present. > Only one developer tag is allowed and the name tag also must be present only once in untranslated form. ``` <developer id="tld.vendor"> <name>Developer name</name> </developer> ``` Source: https://docs.flathub.org/docs/for-app-authors/metainfo-guidelines/#name-summary-and-developer-name > The element should have a id property, containing a unique ID to identify the component developer / development team. It is recommended to use a reverse-DNS name, like org.gnome or io.github.ximion, or a Fediverse handle (like @user@example.org) as ID to achieve a higher chance of uniqueness.
