Well, to do a full validation we need to search for the icon, look for
the desktop file and validate the appdata file. This is what you can
do with:
$ appstream-util check-root
Although it's best used in the package build system, e.g. for RPM you can do:
DESTDIR=%{buildroot} appstream-util check-root
It's lightly tested, so it if works or breaks please let me know.
