This appears to be due to apt updates occuring outside of GNOME Software and triggering access of a NULL pointer inside appstream-glib. Upstream fixed this crash by correctly handling the NULL pointer in appstream-glib 0.7.0. I have not been able to locally reproduce the issue. [Test Case] 1. Run GNOME Software Expected result: This crash doesn't show in errors.ubuntu.com. Observed result: This crash shows in errors.ubuntu.com. [Regression Potential] Low, the fix is a simple check for a NULL value. It is already running this way in 17.10 (no significant errors showing there).
