I've been working on a flatpak for grsync. the app requirements state

Applications must provide application icons in at least 64×64px and 128×128px sizes. Application icons should either be included as scalable SVGs or high-resolution PNGs.

grsync only has a 48x48 icon. Another requirement is a metainfo.xml file. would it be possible for grsync to meet these requirements?

    Hello,

    Thanks for posting this.
    I've not been touching those files for ages, I will try to find the original graphics in higher resolution and add the missing PNGs.

    Hello! I just had a look at the icons and the source distribution provides a 128x128 PNG, I also see it installed in my ubuntu distro from the deb package, so I think you can use that.
    Regarding the metainfo.xml file, I think it's this one:

    https://www.freedesktop.org/software/appstream/docs/

    I will keep this ticket for that, maybe someone with knowledge of the format, or yourself, can help with this? :-)
