Dear Release Team,
please consider unblocking appstream 0.12.6-1.

This minor release contains just two changes[1], one adds a few new
XML/YAML tags to the AppStream specification which allow releases to
denote the location of source code as well as binaries for the
respective release. The risk of breakage due to this feature is
minimal.
The other improves the search functionality of libappstream, which is
the change I would really like to see in Buster. A full revamp of
AppStream's fulltext search is planned for a future post-Buster
release, but the changes in this release are already a major
improvement and will help users find the things they are looking for
in software centers included in Debian.

Thank you for considering!
    Matthias Klumpp

I think it is fair to say that we won't be unblocking this for buster.
The changes just came too late, don't meet the freeze policy and are too
large to do a proper review for an exception.
