I've been playing around but haven't managed to find a descriptor leak, if someone else can reproduce this problem, please try the following from a terminal:
$ ls -l /proc/$(pidof gnome-software)/fd Mine consistently shows about 19 descriptors open, no matter what I do (some temporarily open during actions, but they close quickly). I'll keep looking and look for other causes. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-software in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1648534 Title: /usr/bin/gnome- software:5:g_wakeup_new:g_main_context_new:g_dbus_connection_send_message_with_reply_sync:g_dbus_connection_call_sync_internal:g_dbus_connection_call_sync Status in gnome-software package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: The Ubuntu Error Tracker has been receiving reports about a problem regarding gnome-software.
