In the upstream gnome-software issue I learned that Fedora ships
metainfo{its,loc} via their libappstream-glib-devel package. So could
Debian/Ubuntu move those files from appstream to libappstream-glib-dev?
Well, don't think so — see the attached file for the reason.
It makes little sense to pass release descriptions, which upstream
decided to not translate, to the downstream translators. The problem has
now been reduced via the MR I mentioned (which was merged), but the
descriptions for the latest few releases are still there.
So as regards the POT file for snap-store-desktop I currently see no
other feasible solution than simply making sure that appstream's
metainfo{its,loc} files are not available when generating it. By e.g.
renaming them temporarily or something.
