Bug Description
Using current xenial, softwares like vlc, inkscape, dia, .... gives one line detailled descriptions. It seems like it's using the .desktop comment, is that by design? The .deb (debian/control) descriptions are quite more useful and translators put ton of work in ddtp translations, we should make sure that's not wasted.

That's completely by design - we only use the appstream data and that comes from the .desktop files.
