Software Centers != Package Managers... Test GNOME Software and/or KDE Discover - they read also installed files in /usr/share/appdata; which is why it can be beneficial for make install to do it... but a configure parameter to trigger this would also be an option (configure --enable-appdata for example) Thoughts? --- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
