**GENERATING METADATA** 1) Customize the `asgen-config.json` configuration file (don't rename it!): - `ArchiveRoot` should point to a directory containing a checkout of the binary repos. - `Backend` should be `archlinux` for alpm based packages. - In `Suites`, `sections` is a list with the repositories that should be indexed. - See https://github.com/ximion/appstream-generator/blob/master/docs/asgen-config.md for other options. 2) Run `appstream-generator process arch` (Replace `arch` by the suite name configured in asgen-config.json) **PACKAGING** 4) `Components-${arch}.xml.gz` files should be renamed to include the repo name and installed to `/usr/share/swcatalog/xml/`. 5) `Icons-${size}.tar.gz` should be decompressed and installed to `/usr/share/swcatalog/icons/`.
