Public bug reported:
Apologies if I've got this wrong, but the error appears when software update
runs and seems to be associated with an update for Zygrib grib viewer.
A popup appears, stating that an internal system error has occurred and asking
that it be reported via my distro bugtracker so I'm doing my best!
These are the details given:
