parse-info-all bool
Metadata
Current evaluation
Feature request for a parse-info-all boolean key in snapcraft parts to auto-discover all AppStream metainfo files instead of requiring explicit file listing. Open 8+ years, zero comments, no maintainer interaction, only auto-applied 19.04 version labels.
Suggested action: needs triage
Reason: The issue has zero comments, no assignee, and no maintainer response in 8+ years. The only labels (19.04, 19.04-blue, 19.04-external) are auto-applied version markers, not triage categorisation. It is a valid feature request that was never assessed. Related issue #5278 (metainfo data not used by store) was closed as blocked on store backend, but this request about file discovery is a separate concern that may still be actionable.
