Notes:
* The release breaks the Qt library API. Patches to make KDE Discover use the new API exist
in its Git master branch, and will be available with Plasma 5.9.
The patches will likely not enter the stable branch, so if you want to upgrade AppStream,
you might need to ship patches for Discover downstream to use the new API.

extend and also a bit faster due to removing needless data conversions.
(Matthias Klumpp, Aleix Pol)

Wed Sep 21 14:00:00 2016 fabianAATTritter-vogt.de
- Use a define for the so version and fix -devel requiring the old libappstream3
Fri Sep 16 14:00:00 2016 alarrosaAATTsuse.com
- Update to version 0.10.0
- Disable stemming support until we have libstemmer packaged.
- Generate libappstream4 packages since AppStream changes the ABI in 0.10.0
Notes:
* This release breaks API/ABI in order to support multiple metadata sets describing the same
component (needed for bundling support), moving away from the database as central data store
and general cleanup.
* Porting is relatively straightforward, if you were using AsDatabase, you should switch to AsPool
now (AsDatabase has been a wrapper around AsPool for a while anyway).
* Many methods became private API with this release, file a bug if you miss anything.
* The \'categories.xml\' file is gone - please account for that if you were reading it directly,
and consider using AsCategory instead, which offers the same functionality.

* Allow the \'C\' description fallback to be turned off (Iain Lane)
* Make AsScreenshot return localized images by default (Matthias Klumpp)
* Allow to compare AsRelease versions easily (Matthias Klumpp)
