This is a feature that should not be easily disabled by the user. [Test Case] 1. Open Startup Applications Expected result: GNOME Software is not shown Observed result: GNOME Software is shown and can be disabled. [Regression Potential] Low - this just hides this entry. If a user had disabled the gnome-software service from automatically starting in the background, it will now be more difficult to re-enable it. rm ~/.config/autostart/gnome-software-service.desktop The gnome-software service is a bit heavy (LP: #1592678) so some users do disable it. The downside is that by disabling it, the Software app takes much longer to start.
