Package: gnome-software
Version: 3.30.6-4
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
gnome-software is stucked at startup, displaying 'Software catalog is being
loaded'.
It should be related to the fact that packagekit has a problem:
sudo systemctl status packagekit
* packagekit.service - PackageKit Daemon
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/packagekit.service; static; vendor
preset: enabled)
Active: failed (Result: signal) since Wed 2019-02-13 15:04:42 CET; 12s ago
Process: 2720 ExecStart=/usr/lib/packagekit/packagekitd (code=killed,
signal=ABRT)
Main PID: 2720 (code=killed, signal=ABRT)
Doing this, will repair packagekit:
sudo rm /var/lib/PackageKit/*.db
sudo systemctl restart packagekit.service
sudo pkcon repair
But as soon as I restart gnome-software, packagekit is down again.
