Description soee 2016-07-06 11:32:15 UTC
If we run Discover for the first time we will see hilighted message: "Please make sure that Appstream is properly setup on your system". This message doesn't explain how/what to do to check if Appstream is ssetup as it should. Please add more detailed message what steps user should take to make sure all is configured as required by Discover.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run Discover first time

Actual Results:  
See simple message "Please make sure that Appstream is properly setup on your system"

Expected Results:  
We shoudl see more detailed message that explains what user has to do to check the setup.

What one should do after getting this, is contact the distribution. It shouldn't have happened that you don't have it and it's not a task the user must endure.

Please reopen if I read your issue wrongly.
