I think Naël is correct that this problem goes away when gnome-software is replaced by snap-store. Or, at least, it appears to have gone away for me when I did that.
I'm a bit concerned about that, though, because the reason why I didn't get that update is because I pretty much exclusively use apt to do my updates, and apparently that's no longer sufficient to get all the updates needed on an Ubuntu system. I don't want to have to run the graphical update-manager to do updates. I know this is mostly off-topic here, but I don't suppose anyone knows whether there is a way to do the equivalent of what update-manager does, but from the command line? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to appstream in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1861631 Title: "The AppStream system cache was updated, but some components were ignored. Refer to the verbose log for more information." Status in appstream package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in gnome-software package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: `apt-get update` and the nightly `apticron --cron` job are reporting: "The AppStream system cache was updated, but some components were ignored. Refer to the verbose log for more information." This is pretty much meaningless to most people who have no idea what AppStream is and what "verbose log" is being referred to. I dug around and managed to discover `appstreamcli refresh-cache --force --verbose`, whose output is attached. I don't know what the "bad" output is or how to fix it. All I know is that I hope Focal isn't going to be generating this message when it ships, because it isn't going to make sense to most people and most people won't know how to fix it and it causes annoying emails from apticron every night.
