This bug was fixed in the package gnome-software -
3.20.1+git20160414.1.cc9a0a6.ubuntu-xenial-0ubuntu1
---------------
gnome-software (3.20.1+git20160414.1.cc9a0a6.ubuntu-xenial-0ubuntu1) xenial;
urgency=medium
* New upstream snapshot from the wip/iainl/ubuntu-xenial branch at
git://git.gnome.org/gnome-software.
+ Uses libapt instead of manual parsing to find out about Debian packages.
+ Runs the background service again for firmware and other updates. (LP:
#1565865)
+ Fixes use-after-free (LP: #1554164)
+ Should mark software as 'free' correctly. (LP: #1569328, #1568021)
* All Ubuntu patches are in the orig.tar.xz, so have been dropped from the
packaging.
* debian/control: Add libapt-pkg-dev BD - the apt plugin now uses libapt
directly instead of parsing files itself.
* debian/README.source: Add info on where the upstream VCS with Ubuntu
changes is.
