Hi Jonathan and Dan: > I am not sure what you mean. There is no "snap-store" deb on my > 20.04 system, nor does "apt search snap-store" yield any results.
It's a snap application, which you'll see in the output of the "snap list" command if it is installed. It provides the Ubuntu Software application on 20.04 and replaces the "gnome-software" deb, cf https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/is-ubuntu-software-going-to-be-remove- for-snap-snap-store/14542 and bug 1868409. If I understand correctly, at this point in time, your system shouldn't have the "gnome-software" deb any longer unless you've manually installed it yourself, and it should have the "snap-store" snap instead. > Furthermore, this bug was initially reported about the output of > apticron showing up in cron job emails; as far as I know, apticron > is independent of gnome-software. This is unclear to me too, but Matthias Klumpp identified the cause of this error as lying with gnome-software metadata, and he fixed it upstream in gnome-software, cf comment 3 on this bug. Perhaps apticron runs apt-get update? > I have an up-to-date focal system and I am still seeing this. I don't see it any more. The plot thickens. You may still have the "gnome-software" deb? If yes, and you don't mind migrating to the "snap- store" snap for you Ubuntu Software application, then you could run the update-manager (the graphical application), it will take care of the transition, see bug 1868409 for details. -- 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/1861631 Title: "The AppStream system cache was updated, but some components were ignored.
