We don't know if maintainer monitorize these PRs, so if not please open a quick bug report in RPMFusion bugzilla pointing to this PR. @hobbes1069 , what do you think ? |
AppData files are a standard to describe GUI applications. In particular, they allow these applications to be searched for and installed through software centers. This commit embeds a `.appdata.xml` file for Avidemux, so my grandmother can install it without having to open a terminal.
