Title:
  appstream metadata not created

Status in snap-store:
  Triaged
Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  The gnome-software packaged depends on appstream, which was bringing
  in that binary package in previous releases.  With the switch to
  seeding the snap this is causing a problem with the appstream cache
  never getting populated.  The appstream package includes an apt config
  that triggered the appstream cache refresh after update.  We need to
  explicitly seed the appstream package in ubuntu-desktop.
