Hi Richard,

Thanks for your answer, it was quite weird to me, looking the data
provided by copr repo, that it would work. In my understanding the only
way for gnome-software to get appdata information would be to get the
rpm which wouldn't be optimized. 
So from your answer it's clear, is there any plan for copr to generate
this data in the futur? If I setup my own repository, would I be able to
generate this data? My software is quite far from being releasable on
fedora repos that's why I'm asking.

Best regards,
