This is not a problem in "appstream", it's usually a package manager issue,
e.g. if there was a power outage during upgrades or install/remove steps. In
this case, it just randomly hit the appstream package.
If the APT installation is fixed, this problem should go away. Please file an
issue against APT in case this is a persistent problem!
