Description

I really don't understand why this dependency is needed, but it seems to be required.

It'll go in the top of General Libraries. See #18573

If -Dqt=true is passed, libappstream-qt is built, which can be used by KDE Discover in Plasma. I'll mention Qt as optional and add in a command explanation for it.

Replying to Douglas R. Reno:

It seems because the new libadwaita "about" dialog is implemented by parsing the metadata in the appstream file describing the package.

This package has a hard dependency on systemd, but elogind on SysV does provide enough functionality for it to work.
