Title:
Gnome Software front end showed spinner on all actions; had to kill
service process to fix
Status in gnome-software package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
When opening Gnome Software, the front screen worked fine for me
(showing the featured app, editor's picks and so on) but taking any
action (clicking a different tab, or clicking an application, or doing
a search) showed an empty window with a spinner. There was a long-
running "/usr/bin/gnome-software --gapplication-service" process
running; killing that process and then starting Gnome Software made
everything work again (and updated the featured app to be the current
one).
