[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Add appdata file and make it known to Makefile.am (#1142)

[elextr]

@badshah400 I have already said twice that IMHO the generic file can be added to Geany, I don't have to like it as well :).

As for installing it from _tarball or git_, the software manager doesn't know that geany is installed since there is no package involved, and adding the appdata.xml doesn't change that (I tested it). The software manager still shows the description from the distro (at least on Mint 18) and invites me to install 1.27.1 over my 1.29 install, so I still don't see why the appdata needs to be installed in those cases.
