That was actually one of the two reasons I started this thread.

For instance, is this the package that must be rebuilt in order to see
an AppStream metadata file appear/refreshed in GNOME Software?
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/appstream-data
Could we get an explainer (for dummies) of how the entire pipeline works?

The other reason was someone from Debian telling one of my upstreams
"Don't use appstream-util to validate the file, it's deprecated, use
appstreamcli". Frankly, that struck a chord, considering x years ago I
had spent a considerable amount of time convincing dozens of projects
to adopt "AppData" (at the time), filing tickets and submitting PRs.
