Please unblock package appstream

The 0.7.4 contains a huge amount of bugfixes, for problems like
crashes in case no AppStream metadata was found, or debug-log-spam
in certain circumstances during Xapian database rebuilds.
It also brings full support for the new icon cache format introduced with the
latest AppStream spec, which increases compatibility with future versions of
this package. A few performance optimizations were also done.

This is a new upstream release, but the changes are not very huge and the
package has been tested in unstable already (for 6 days). The reverse
dependencies work fine with it, and I think the bugfixes done with this release
justify it's inclusion into Jessie.

If necessary, I can walk through the delta between 0.7.3 and this release and
explain it.
There were no larger changes on the packaging, which are unrelated to the
upstream release, and this package should be pretty safe to unblock at the
current time.
If you have further questions, please ask!

Kind regards,
   Matthias Klumpp

Hi!
Since this change is relatively large and we are getting very close to
the strict freeze, I think at the current point in time it might be
better if I provide a backport of this library to Jessie, as soon as
it is released.
Therefore closing this bug.
Kind regards,
    Matthias
