Why

To get applications to appear within software centers that only support displaying packages with AppStream data.

How

This will require that we scrape deb packages for their .desktop files, possible appstream XML files, and icons. The icons can be re-rendered at various sizes and compressed into archives, while the appstream XML and .desktop files must be converted into DEP-11 Yaml and compressed into archives.
