PSA: If you're trying to build a #Flatpak in #Debian 12 using the 24.08 SDK, and it crashes with

bwrap: execvp appstream-compose: No such file or directory

you need to install a more recent version of flatpak-builder. A compatible one is available from bookworm-backports.

https://www.mail-archive.com/debian-bugs-d[email protected]/msg1993192.html

See https://wiki.debian.org/Backports for how to set up the backports repo, and then use something like `apt install flatpak-builder/bookworm-backports`.

Here I am one again #fighting against #appstreamcli validate

given this (image urls are not important here)

[...]
    &lt;screenshots>
        &lt;screenshot>
            &lt;image type="source" xml:lang="en">https://[...].png&lt;/image>
        &lt;/screenshot>
        &lt;screenshot type="default">
            &lt;image type="source" xml:lang="en">https://[...].png&lt;/image>
        &lt;/screenshot>
    &lt;/screenshots>
[...]

appstreamcli validate complains

E: [...]: screenshot-image-source-missing
   A screenshot must have at least one image of type `source`.

... ok?

this works:

[...]
    &lt;image type="source">https://[...].png&lt;/image>
[...]

but them flathub validation will complains that a lang attribute is required.

So here I am once again commenting out ninja test from PKGBUILD

End note:

$ appstreamcli --version
AppStream version: 1.0.1
