+
+  <description>
+    <p>
+      AppStream is a cross-distribution specification to provide metadata about software components.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      The appstream-generator tool generates AppStream metadata from the repositories of a software distribution.
+      It currently supports the following repository formats / distributions: Debian, Ubuntu, Arch Linux, RPM-MD (Fedora, Mageia).
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      The generator will produce AppStream collection metadata files in the AppStream YAML or XML format to be shipped
+      to users, as well as a detailed HTML report about found components and HTML and JSON reports on issues detected
+      with the scanned metadata. It reads .desktop files as well as metainfo files, renders fonts, scales images, caches
+      screenshots etc. to produce high-quality metadata for AppStream based software centers to consume.
+      Usually, appstream-generator is integrated with the existing software build &amp; delivery workflow of
+      a distribution.
