Appstream in fedora

[Matthias Klumpp]

Hi! Replying from my phone, so sorry for top-posting. (I am currently
without internet)
This looks like a packaging bug for libas. Can you place "categories.xml"
from the libas source tree in the requested directory?
Also, can you ensure that the package "appstream-data" is installed, and if
you still don't get any search results, run "appstream-index refresh
--force" as root?
That should definitively do the trick.
Cheers,
    Matthias

Muon Discover isn't working. This is just an easier way to reproduce the
problem.
