Package: gnome-software Version: 3.18.3-2 Severity: serious
Since upgrading to the version which enabled fwupd support, the upgrade functionality is broken when fwupd is not installed. I no longer get any notifications when new packages are awailable and when opening the Updates tab in the main software just shows an error messages that the fwupd D-Bus service is not available.

Installing fwupd makes gnome-software work again, so it's clearly a problem of it not dealing with the case gracefully when fwupd is not available. -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (200, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.3.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_DE.utf8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages gnome-software depends on: ii appstream 0.9.0-2 ii dconf-gsettings-backend [gsettings-backend] 0.24.0-2 ii gnome-software-common 3.18.3-2 ii gsettings-desktop-schemas 3.18.1-1 ii libappstream-glib8 0.5.5-1 ii libatk1.0-0 2.18.0-1 ii libc6 2.21-4 ii libcairo-gobject2 1.14.4-1 ii libcairo2 1.14.4-1 ii libfwupd1 0.6.0-1 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.32.3-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.46.2-1 ii libgnome-desktop-3-12 3.18.2-1 ii libgtk-3-0 3.18.6-1 ii liblimba0 0.5.4-1 ii libpackagekit-glib2-18 1.0.11-1 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.38.1-1 ii libpangocairo-1.0-0 1.38.1-1 ii libpolkit-gobject-1-0 0.105-14 ii libsoup2.4-1 2.52.2-1 ii libsqlite3-0 3.9.2-1 ii packagekit 1.0.11-1 gnome-software recommends no packages.
