In order to migrate the driver finding in Ubuntu to PackageKit, we think it makes sense to use AppStream to do that. I think what we have to do for that is

  1. Document the modalias list for provides for the appstream yaml format
  2. extract modalias list from the packages Modaliases field, which looks like this:
    Modaliases: nvidia(pci:v000010DEd000005E7sv*sd00000595bc03sc*i*, ...)
  3. Make software-properties query appstream for modaliases.

Does that sound about right?
