+Subject: [PATCH 3/3] Add support for automatic appdata() provides
+
+Appdata files contain application information used by the AppStream
+project. We generate two provides: appdata() to support enumeration
+of all application packages and appdata(filenname) to make it easy
+to link installed packages with appdata files.

+Subject: [PATCH 2/3] Add application() and application(filename) provides for
+ desktop files.
+
+Gnome software center needs to know what package to deinstall if it
+needs to deinstall a desktop application. Looking up provides it much
+cheaper than looking up which package owns a file.
+
+We also add an empty application() provides to make it easy to
+enumerate all packages containing desktop applications.
