The SRU template looks a little light, and I corrected the version
number, but uploaded and in the queue now.

Title:
  AppStream metadata allow user uninstallation of PackageKit

Status in PackageKit:
  Fix Released
Status in packagekit package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in packagekit source package in Noble:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

  An AppStream metainfo file was added in PackageKit since v1.2.8.
  Unfortunately, this file causes PackageKit to show in App Center,
  GNOME Software, KDE Discover and other package management GUIs and
  allow users to click an "Uninstall" button.

  The appstream metadata should be updated to specify that it cannot be
  uninstalled. This was implemented upstream in version 1.3.0:
  
https://github.com/PackageKit/PackageKit/commit/d8f84f7e0a017e0b4df1e08a2a6be832c9fb3611

  [ Test plan ]

  1. Install gnome-software
  2. Run `gnome-software --details org.freedesktop.PackageKit`
  3. Verify that "Software" opens a page about PackageKit
  4. Verify that there is no button to uninstall it

  [ Where problems could occur ]

  The patch only changes the metainfo.xml file adding
  <compulsory_for_desktop> tags. The tag is supported starting from
  appstream version 0.6 (dating 2014), so the file will be parsed
  without problems.
