Email popped up & I saw last two comments...
I booted dx6120 & a Lubuntu 18.10 test install;
sudo apt update
sudo apt full-upgrade
sudo apt install gnome-software (pulling in...)
gnome-software
searched & tried to install 'leafpad'

I use my ISP's mirror (free of bandwidth quota) post-installation (apt-cache

This install was made on recent QA-Test, and I've added & played with things a
little since then for testing. but its mostly original..

Title:
xubuntu 18.10 daily (x86 live & installed) - [gnome-]software cannot
install leafpad/gedit/software
Status in gnome-software package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
using the live earlier today I had this issue, I re-zsync'd cosmic
daily & re-wrote to thumb-drive, then re-tested - same issue.
load "software' at main menu; search for leafpad (chosen only because
it's small & I know name), then clicking install - it sits awhile then
software closes.
after software closes, error/warning-type-windows appear saying
"Invalid problem report - No such file or directory"
I re-loaded [gnome-]software from terminal & the output is as follows
(same results on screen, search leafpad, select it then click install
- software closes/abends..)

note: this has now been tested on three machines, same results (for leafpad
& gedit) using same thumb-drive & daily iso. However I got the same result on
yesterday's iso on dx6120 (first tested system) but didn't have time then to
fully diagnose & submit - now done (on newer iso)

I booted on a QA-test installed Xubuntu 18.10 (/dev/sda2) on the dx6120, sudo
apt update; sudo apt dist-upgrade; then tried gnome-software to add leafpad,
gedit... same result -- see comment #12
