If I understand it correctly, the appstream-data package is generated using this tool. AppStream metadata are important part of the Fedora Workstation, therefore I am proposing this not only as a FE, but also as a Blocker.

You need to update the bugzilla, not just vote here. I just did.

For the blocker proposal, I think we had some policy about up-to-date appstream metadata, but I can't find it right now. Also, we need a confirmation that a broken appstream-generator actually blocks creating those metadata. @catanzaro @chrismurphy

I doubt FTBFS is going to stop metadata generation....

If it doesn't affect metadata generation, I don't see why this shouldn't wait until an update.

If this really does not prevent appstream-data from being generated, I agree with FinalBlocker -1, however why voting against the FinalFE? The fix for this issue is already in Bodhi.

Why does it merit a freeze exception? This has no impact on end users at all. It can be fixed in an update, right?

We generally don't want packages that don't build or install in GA repos if we can help it, hence the FE request.

A noble goal I guess...
