I think the problem may have been fixed upstream by Flathub removing the offending tags from the metadata file. I just ran the command "flatpak update --appstream", and I see that the metadata file was generated with a new timestamp, now without the offending tags.
Ivar: Possibly, you can now run "apt-get update" without any crash, since it seems to trigger an update of the Flathub metadata and may do so in time to avoid the subsequent crash. Otherwise, you can try running "flatpak update --appstream" manually first, then "apt-get update". With the crash gone, maybe the impetus for "upgrading your way out of the problem" via "apt-get upgrade" is no longer there, but it should be possible. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to appstream in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2156906 Title: appstreamcli segmentation fault prevents SW updates To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/appstream/+bug/2156906/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
