Bug ID: 402306
Summary: PackageKit crashes every time while fetching updates
for Discover
Product: Discover
Version: unspecified
Platform: Kubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: crash
Priority: NOR
Component: discover
Assignee: aleix...@kde.org
Reporter: leftcr...@tutanota.com
Target Milestone: ---
This is all I could find in the logs (I didn't kill it):
12/18/18 5:07 PM packagekitd terminate called after throwing an
instance of 'std::length_error'
12/18/18 5:07 PM packagekitd what(): basic_string::_M_replace
12/18/18 5:07 PM systemd packagekit.service: Main process exited,
code=killed, status=6/ABRT
12/18/18 5:07 PM systemd packagekit.service: Failed with result
'signal'.
system info:
Operating System: Kubuntu 18.10
KDE Plasma Version: 5.14.4
Qt Version: 5.11.1
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.52.0
Kernel Version: 4.18.0-12-generic
OS Type: 64-bit
To reproduce, click the update plasmoid or click update inside Discover. Gnome
Software just fails to retrieve the updates (there are 24 updated shown with
pkcon update, Gnome Software shows zero).
This update bug (packagekit GUIs either not showing updates or crashing at
update request) has existed for years on both rpm and deb distros, so not sure
if KDE can do anything about it. Might be software sources causing a problem.
It only sort of works on Fedora 29 in my experience.
