You need to do (kill the old instance):
killall gnome-software
gnome-software --prefer-local
Ok, that's still a nogo... I assume that the search is not case sensitive?

"appstream-util validate foo.appdata.xml" does the validation, but
gnome-software is the only client that can do a graphical "preview" of
what it looks like. Perhaps I need to fix that.
Maybe not... I don't mind using gnome-software as long as I can figure out how to make sure it sees the new appdata file.
I'm not actually too worried about the content per se, but I do want to verify that the screenshot URL is good and that it looks good.
Thanks,
