Problems could be using a out-of-date mirror (have you checked your mirror is up-to-date?
I am using the default "Software and Update" repository settings. No mirrors. http/https ports are not being stopped by firewall/proxy, but ports used to download software are being actively stopped thus your issue. I enabled UFW. I was able to download and install the Gnome extensions "cpufreq" and "NetSpeed". I can download software using APT in the terminal. If I open Ubuntu Software, I get the following message: "Unable to download firmware updates from "fwupd": failed to download https://cdn.fwupd.org/downloads/firmware.xml.gz: Cannot connect to the destination." These are support issues, and not bugs. You may be using a university/corporate internet service which restricts certain traffic etc, no details of which have been provided. Please provide more details. I am using regular home internet. -- 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/1854912 Title: Installation stuck at 0% To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-software/+bug/1854912/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
