Description

appdata.xml appears to only be installed for `simple_install_f()`, it doesn't seem to be installed in `xdg_install_f()`

Research direction

Read build/linux/dist/install.sh around lines 101-102 and compare simple_install_f() with xdg_install_f(). Done means appdata.xml is installed through the xdg path as well as the simple-install path, with both installation modes checked for regressions.
