The change of "Encoding" from being a required key to an optional key whose presence generates a warning suggests that all of the results in the db for this specific test (desktop-file-validate as reported by rpmlint) are meaningless. I've filed this as https://fedorahosted.org/rpmgrok/ticket/18 Hopefully at least some of the other rpmlint tests recorded in the db are still useful though.
