ok, I thought this was about a live session too. It being about the installed system changes my assessment a bit. In particular, I think it should be discussed with upstream before we press ahead with changing anything about this bug in Ubuntu, whereas the live environment is more special so it's often more okay to do hacks there.
So, please file a bug upstream or come to #gnome-software or post on the ML for a chat. -- 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/1756379 Title: Delay start of gnome-software service Status in gnome-software package in Ubuntu: New Status in gnome-software source package in Bionic: Triaged Bug description: On a default Bionic Desktop installation, gnome-software starts early and slows down session startup. In the bootchart attached, it overlaps with gnome-shell startup which is also resource intensive. With gnome-software delayed gnome-shell starts 2 seconds faster. gnome-software service startup should be delayed if it cannot be stop completely.
