Please unblock package appstream The 0.7.4 contains a huge amount of bugfixes, for problems like crashes in case no AppStream metadata was found, or debug-log-spam in certain circumstances during Xapian database rebuilds. It also brings full support for the new icon cache format introduced with the latest AppStream spec, which increases compatibility with future versions of this package. A few performance optimizations were also done. This is a new upstream release, but the changes are not very huge and the package has been tested in unstable already (for 6 days). The reverse dependencies work fine with it, and I think the bugfixes done with this release justify it's inclusion into Jessie. If necessary, I can walk through the delta between 0.7.3 and this release and explain it. There were no larger changes on the packaging, which are unrelated to the upstream release, and this package should be pretty safe to unblock at the current time. If you have further questions, please ask!
