[Bug 1741588] Re: Categories in Ubuntu Software don't work
It happened on a fresh login for all categories in the software store on 16.04. I upgraded my 16.04 machine to 17.10, but I could wipe the OS partition and reinstall 16.04 this weekend to test if the software store still has the same problem with displaying categories. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-software in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1741588 Title: Categories in Ubuntu Software don't work To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-software/+bug/1741588/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Thank you for your bug report. I can't confirm that on a xenial uptodate system here. Does it happen on a fresh login or only after some steps (maybe interacting with a snap in some way)? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-software in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1741588 Title: Categories in Ubuntu Software don't work To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-software/+bug/1741588/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 1741588] Re: Categories in Ubuntu Software don't work
Polarr is a Snap, but the bug I intended to report here is that on 16.04, none of the items in the category list display or are clickable. The screenshot attached to the original bug report illustrates the problem. I couldn't say for sure whether Polarr is in the list or not because each of the apps display as a box with an ellipsis inside: no icon or text. One weird thing I when switching between categories is that none of the items in the list for each category render or are clickable, but there are different amounts of items in each category. I know I had an internet connection because I was on a video call. During a demo of the new Polarr Snap I was asked whether the Polarr Snap is in the Software Store and if it showed up under the Graphics category. I could bring up Polarr by searching for it directly. It was kind of embarrassing though when none of the categories in the store worked. We link our existing users to our snapcraft.io/polarr page, but we're not featured, the categories were broken on 16.04, and we don't show up under categories on 17.10, so there is currently no way for new users to find Polarr in the Software Store. Thanks for your patience, I know that y'all have a lot of work to do with all the new Snaps coming out. I've seen categories in the Software Store work before and maybe this is just a temporary regression; I just wanted to share this in case you weren't aware of the problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-software in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1741588 Title: Categories in Ubuntu Software don't work To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-software/+bug/1741588/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
