Metadata not updating with new builds

tingdahl · November 5, 2022, 1:01pm

Hi,

I have a set of meta-data in my snapcraft.yaml. The store fetches the sources from github and builds it. The store is set to use the meta-data from the snapcraft.yaml, but that does not seem to happen. Specifically, the license is set to “unknown” in the store, the website is not listed, although they are in the snapcraft.yaml since long.

Do I do something wrong?

Hi,

I think license is not covered by metadata updates from the snap for reasons that escape me right now. Website should be, in principle, but we’re currently in the middle of refactoring link handling and it might not be working as expected.

One thing you could do is do a trivial update to the description or summary of your snap and see if that gets updated. If so, please file us a bug about license and website not updating properly. If description or summary don’t update, please file us a bug (same place) about metadata updates being broken and we’ll have a look either way.
