I strongly suspect that each of these cases is going to be a problem of missing metadata in the app's own source repo rather than an issue in Discover. In the case of Ardour for example, we can see that "DAW" does not appear anywhere in either its appdata file nor its desktop file: https://github.com/Ardour/ardour/blob/master/gtk2_ardour/ardour.appdata.xml.in.in https://github.com/Ardour/ardour/blob/master/gtk2_ardour/ardour.desktop.in So the app itself does not advertise "DAW" as a thing you can use to find it. Therefore, Discover can't know that it should be find when you search for DAW. In this case it's (also) a bug in flatpak's packaging: https://github.com/flathub/org.ardour.Ardour/blob/master/org.ardour.Ardour.json#L559 They're renaming the file so flatpak never knows that it got renamed. :/ Did a PR. I guess you can pass it to other projects that you see doing similar things. https://github.com/flathub/org.ardour.Ardour/pull/22 Thanks Aleix! <3 <3 |
