[Desktop-packages] [Bug 2006110] Re: [SRU] Update to 0.15.2-2ubuntu0.1 for jammy

[Matthias Klumpp]

This debdiff contains a minimal fix to resolve the noisy assertions (and
potential crash) when searching for AppStream data.

It should be suitable for upload to Jammy.
@tintou, sorry for hijacking the SRU report a bit, in hindsight I should 
probably have filed a new one. This should address the most visible issue 
though without any risk of introducing new problems.

(It would still be nice to have a more recent AppStream in Jammy, but we
can request that later)

** Summary changed:

- [SRU] Update to latest bugfix release for jammy
+ [SRU] Update to 0.15.2-2ubuntu0.1 for jammy

** Description changed:

- Appstream 0.15.6 is available since December, 2022 and comes with lots
- of crash fixes
+ The attached debdiff contains two targeted fixes to address noisy
+ warning messages when AppStream is used with newer Flatpak versions.
  
  [ Impact ]
  
-  * Appstream is used by GNOME Software, KDE Discover, Flatpak, Snaps and
- probably lot of other components, since the release of Jammy, a few
- point releases have been made to appstream that fixes crashes and
- optimizations.
+  * Appstream is used by GNOME Software, KDE Discover, Flatpak, Snaps and
+ probably lot of other components. However, this fix has already been
+ well-tested for over a year.
  
  [ Test Plan ]
  
-  * Open GNOME Software and KDE Discover and see that it is still
- populatedwith data
+  * Open GNOME Software and KDE Discover and see that it is still

  [ Where problems could occur ]

+  * If GNOME Software / KDE Discover still show all applications, everything 
should be fine, as this is the codepath this change touches.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 2023215] [NEW] [SRU] Update to 0.7.18-2ubuntu0.1 for jammy

[Matthias Klumpp]

Public bug reported:

[ Impact ]

 * Currently, any application that is using modern AppStream metadata 
containing / tags in their description, and that is still using the 
deprecated appstream-glib will fail to parse this data.
 * Unfortunately, this affects some high-visibility applications now, like 
Flatpak, which are unable to perform proper searches. See 
https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/issues/5434 for reference.
 * This kind of issue may potentially affect more tools as well.

[ Test Plan ]

 * Run "flatpak search firefox"
   - Observe the failure.
 * Update to the patched version
 * Run "flatpak search firefox" again, it should work now.

[ Where problems could occur ]

 * The reverse-dependencies for appstream-glib in Ubuntu Jammy are:
  flatpak-tests
  unity
  libmalcontent-ui-0-0
  libappstream-glib-dev
  gir1.2-appstreamglib-1.0
  appstream-util
  flatpak

 * Flatpak should continue to work, and there should be no new errors in
GNOME/Unity.

[ Other Info ]
 
 * None. Updating this should mainly help Flatpak users and should have no ill 
effects on any other component of the OS.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 2006110] Re: [SRU] Update to 0.15.2-2ubuntu0.1 for jammy

[Matthias Klumpp]

Since it's a race condition, it's hard to reproduce. The most reliable way to 
do so is with Flatpak 1.14.x, which isn't part of Jammy.
So, if you're fine with having this potential issue for other tools in the OS, 
that apparently isn't triggered by anything currently in Jammy, then this 
doesn't need to be addressed.

The more important immediate issue is the one in appstream-glib, and
that's being fixed :-)

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 2019137] Re: gnome-software should (?) be separated from the packagekit

[Matthias Klumpp]

Not sure what you mean, but a GNOME Software with no PackageKit would mean that 
users are completely unable to install or remove any application from the 
Ubuntu archive, in addition to flavors not being able to use offline upgrades 
anymore.
So this sounds like a suggestion with tons of huge drawbacks and annoyances to 
users, and no (?) advantage at all.

Title:
  gnome-software should (?) be separated from the packagekit

Status in gnome-software package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Given that the Snap Store is currently the default in Ubuntu instead
  of GNOME Software, the only reason GNOME Software (along with the Snap
  Store) can be installed is to support Flatpak applications.

  In the current instance, if you want to add flatpak support, GNOME
  Software is installed with both the apt packagekit add-on and the
  flatpak plugin, which is duplication of work (Software Updater already
  works on updates, and Snap Store works on showing deb apps).

  And since the future app store explicitly refuses [1], [2] to support
  flatpak applications, users who need this package format will be
  forced to put GNOME Software with everything I pointed out above.

  Therefore, it would be very nice if the developers removed the
  packagekit add-on from the "gnome-software part" and made it a "plug-
  in for gnome-software".

  I, unfortunately, have no such experience with packaging deb packages
  at the moment, and it turns out that it will obviously be necessary to
  work out both the code part (which, as far as I can see, won't be very
  difficult [3]), as well as the part where we will have to figure out
  where and how to insert the plugin as mandatory (for example, when the
  user completely gives up on snap packages) and as optional (because
  the Snap Store already stands).

  Also, let me know if this needs to be sent to upstream (Debian) instead of 
here.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 2019505] Re: Installed software is not showed, local deb files or compiled one in gnome software store

[Matthias Klumpp]

If the package installs a metainfo file into `/usr/share/metainfo` it
should be displayed. Otherwise it will not be displayed, and that is a
design decision by GNOME Software as not enough metadata is available.

  Installing software via gnome software store  that has been downloaded

  applies to source installs.

  The issue is present regardless of flavor and in 22.04, 22.10 and
  23.04 release.

  Looking on the internet about people having similar problem, I found
  that it could be related to the appstream; to quote Zorin OS devs that
  answered to someone with similar problem with their distro:

  "The Gnome Software Store will not recognize packages installed as .deb 
self-installers. Nor will it see source installs using Make or Ninja."
  "Since this is an appstream metadata issue, no one on the forum can "fix" 
this issue. Only the Gnome Developers can and they were more interested only in 
fixing anything in Gnome-Software that was going into Gnome 4+. There are some 
short term workarounds, like removing the Software Cache files and restarting 
the software store."

[Matthias Klumpp]

There is an easier way: Just fetch the patches DEB packages from my 
Experimental PPA: 
https://launchpad.net/~ximion/+archive/ppa/+sourcepub/2784157/+listing-archive-extra
 and install them.
You then just need to be careful when updating your Xserver: The debdiff here 
needs to have been applied, if not, X will stop working again.
(That's why I hope someone from the X team will take this patch soon)

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1069031] Re: intel gma3600: X unable to start

[Matthias Klumpp]

Better install the package manually - the PPA is for my experimental stuff, so 
it's not safe to use on productive machines. (this package could have gone to 
my testing PPA, however...)
You might want to install the packages 
xserver-common
xserver-xfbdev
xserver-xorg-core
xvfb
Just put them into one new directory, open a Terminal, cd to it and run "sudo 
dpkg -i *.deb".

[Matthias Klumpp]

This issue also breaks Publican and similar tools which validate their input 
Docbook before running.
It's a pretty annoying thing to track down (I initially thought it was a 
publican issue...), especially because it was introduced by a security bugfix, 
breaking existing setups.

[Matthias Klumpp]

Since eMp3Gain ist more or less dead upstream, I don't expect anything to 
happen... I suggest everyone to try the new build from Saucy, which is built 
against a fresh LCL which shouldn't have this problem and also provides a 
(working) Qt4 build of the package.
That should solve the issue.

Bug description:
  upower 0.99 needs uploading for gnome 3.12 to enter ubuntu. It drops
  the suspend/hibernate functions, as logind now does that. All major
  DEs have support for this,so nearly everything just needs a rebuild.
  This bug tracks the transition.

  A transition is required as some features were removed and the SONAME
  was changed

  All packages (and build logs) are staged in
  https://launchpad.net/~noskcaj/+archive/upower/+packages

  sugar will probably need removing. If a package only needs a rebuild,
  mark it fix commited, if something else is needed, in progress.

  cairo-dock-plug-ins: needs rebuilding
  gnome-shell - ready, just need to drop upower revert.
  gnome-control-center: WIP
  gnome-packagekit: Upower dropped from newest upstream release.
  gnome-power-manager: Fixed in newest upstream release. Merge from debian
  gnome-session: Done in ppa, needs patches from git or new upstream release
  gnome-settings-daemon: 3.12 is ready out of the box, however that also 
requires gnome-desktop transition. 3.8 and also u-s-d: I have a package that is 
mostly working, however had to cherry-pick quite a few patches and may just be 
better to backport 3.12 power plugin. (considering g-s-d patches will be 
temporary, but u-s-d not so)
  kde: works fine with systemd, suspend broken with upstart, no rebuilds needed
  cinnamon: Rebuild
  mate: all mate packages need rebuilding
  python-dbusmock: needs rebuild
  sugar: Upstream bug now filed. Unlikely to be ready in time for 14.10. We 
should remove this from the archive till the next upstream release
  telepathy-mission-control-5: Debian has dropped upower support, so it's done
  wmbattery: needs rebuild
  xfce4-power-manager: Needs rebuilding
  xfce4-session: Fixed already, since we switched to logind
  xfce4-settings: Needs rebuild
  xfce4-systemload-plugin: needs rebuild

time in Ubuntu 11.10.
  It loads normally, but when I choose Add Folder, the Select Destination 
window opens, but I can't do anything in it. Neither choose folders, change 
discs in the left tree, or even cancel the operation. The Close icon in the 
upper right corner doesn't work either.
  Only way to get out of it is via Kill Process in System Monitor
  The first times, I could open one file with Add File, but now that doesn't 
work either.

  My hard drives are healthy,  and I have no problems in other
  applications.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 875878] Re: Easymp3gain Hangs when clicking Add File or Add Folder

[Matthias Klumpp]

The problem is a combination of GTK+, LCL and easyMp3gain, which should be okay 
in Quantal, but not in Precise - it should be fixed in Precise, if not, please 
reopen this bugreport.
If you take the *binary* packages from Debian/Quantal, it should work too.
Thanks for the information!

Hmm... Can you please install the debug infos then, run gdb on easymp3gain and 
attach the fresh backtrace here then?
I wonder why this works for other people... Your GTK+ is up-to-date?

I have to agree, shipping this file is independent from enabling the 
auto-update plugin.
As programs relying on the schema are already crashing, this bug is definitely 
not a 'whishlist' item...
I hope this can be resolved! :)

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  An attempt to run the isenkram-lookup command from the isenkram-cli
  package results in a segfault/crash. The proposed appstream upload in
   fixes the
  issue.

  [Test case]

  1. Install the isenkram package

  2. Run the isenkram-lookup command

  -> Find that it segfaults

  3. Install the packages built by the appstream source
     package from groovy-proposed

  -> Find that the command succeeds and possibly lists a few
     suggested packages.

  [Where problems could occur]

  TBH this fix is far above my head. Only code comments are changed,
  i.e. some occurrences of "full" are replaced with "container", but it
  still has proved to be it.

  The reasoning in the commit message sounds plausible:

  https://github.com/ximion/appstream/commit/b52858bf

  [Original description]

  I just run the isenkram-lookup command.

  The crash may be related to this autopkgtest failure (which current
  blocks migration of gtk+3.0):

[Matthias Klumpp]

This is not a problem in "appstream", it's usually a package manager issue, 
e.g. if there was a power outage during upgrades or install/remove steps. In 
this case, it just randomly hit the appstream package.
If the APT installation is fixed, this problem should go away. Please file an 
issue against APT in case this is a persistent problem!

  When adding a PPA that has packages with AppStream metadata, it should
  be possible to find and install these packages from Snap Store.
  However, when searching for them in Snap Store, no results are found.

  To reproduce this issue, try, for example, add Lutris PPA:
  $ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:lutris-team/lutris
  $ sudo apt-get update

  Then restart the computer or run "killall snap-store", then launch
  Ubuntu Software again and search for "Lutris".

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1903574] Re: isenkram-lookup crashed with SIGSEGV in g_type_check_instance_cast()

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  An attempt to run the isenkram-lookup command from the isenkram-cli
  package results in a segfault/crash. The proposed appstream upload in
   fixes the
  issue.

  [Test case]

  1. Install the isenkram package

  2. Run the isenkram-lookup command

  -> Find that it segfaults

  3. Install the packages built by the appstream source
     package from groovy-proposed

  -> Find that the command succeeds and possibly lists a few
     suggested packages.

  [Where problems could occur]

  TBH this fix is far above my head. Only code comments are changed,
  i.e. some occurrences of "full" are replaced with "container", but it
  still has proved to be it.

  The reasoning in the commit message sounds plausible:

  https://github.com/ximion/appstream/commit/b52858bf

  [Original description]

  I just run the isenkram-lookup command.

  The crash may be related to this autopkgtest failure (which current
  blocks migration of gtk+3.0):

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1864307] Re: Many apps have no icon in Software on Focal

[Matthias Klumpp]

Actually, I just realized that Ubuntu has its very own, new flavor of this bug 
due to shipping gnome-software as a Snap. The `appstream` package is seeded 
with the minimal desktop seed, which is good, but in order for the Snap version 
of GS to install any icons, the `apt-config-icons` package also has to be 
installed - GS isn't smart enough to fall back to downloading icons in many 
cases and expects those to be present. The `gnome-software` package depends on 
the icon config, but the Snap store doesn't have this on new installations.
So, to fix this issue both the patch I linked in this report and a default 
dependency on `apt-config-icons` is needed.

The reason the `appstream` package doesn't depend on the icons on its
own is that the data may also be used on servers and more minimal
systems (e.g. for firmware and driver information) where downloading the
icons isn't required. Therefore, all software centers in Debian/Ubuntu
depend on the `apt-config-icons*` package(s) they need.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1825766] Re: search results don't match apt search

[Matthias Klumpp]

On 1): The metainfo/appdata file is only enough if it is complete, so,
contains an icon reference and name/summary/etc. tags. If it doesn't,
then you'll need the .desktop file as well and a launchable entry.

On 2): All of these locations are wrong ^^ Metainfo files *must* be installed 
into /usr/share/metainfo in order to be valid. Refer to the AppStream 
specification (specifically 
https://www.freedesktop.org/software/appstream/docs/chap-Metadata.html#spec-component-location)
 for details.
There's also an online tool to help people making metainfo files at 
https://www.freedesktop.org/software/appstream/metainfocreator/#/ now

As for that existing "appdata" file, make sure it's actually an
AppStream metainfo file before installing it somewhere else - maybe it
just coincidentally has the same name as a metainfo file, but actually
is something different.

Also, google.chrome and network-manager need their metainfo locations
fixed ;-) It's likely that support for the legacy location will go away
soonish (almost nothing installs files there nowadays).

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1864307] Re: Many apps have no icon in Software on Focal

[Matthias Klumpp]

On a fresh Ubuntu installation, apt-config-icons isn't installed by
default (at least it wasn't when I installed a fresh Ubuntu yesterday,
until I replaced the snap-store with the packaged gnome-software). So
new users who aren't upgrading from a previous Ubuntu version will still
have much less icons than people who get Focal by upgrading from an
older Ubuntu release.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1825766] Re: search results don't match apt search

[Matthias Klumpp]

@stuardo:
The reason for Guake being missing is that the `guake.desktop` file in 
`/usr/share/applications` is a symbolic link *and* the application doesn't ship 
a metainfo file.
This is forbidden: https://wiki.debian.org/AppStream/Guidelines
The .desktop file being a symlink results in Guake basically not being seen by 
the metadata generator at all. To fix this, either the .desktop file needs to 
be an actual file, and not a symlink, or a metainfo file[1] has to be shipped 
with this package. Ideally both.

The reason this package is missing is simply a result of nobody caring
enough to submit a patch or do a bit of work to make this app show up
for a few years now (it never was in the catalog, as far as I can tell).
Maybe a good case for a patch submission? ;-)

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1864307] Re: Many apps have no icon in Software on Focal

[Matthias Klumpp]

There are two things which could be the cause for this:
 1) The appstream-generator used for Focal is old, and there were quite a few 
fixes to find more icons and ignore apps without sufficient icon data in more 
recent releases. @laney will hopefully update the tool ;-)

 2) GNOME Software has a bug which makes it always load stock icons for
applications, even if they are actually not available on the system and
GS should fall back to the cached icons. We've seen this in Debian but I
haven't had the time yet to investigate this further.

This is resolved in `appstream >= 0.12.7` (since the code doesn't exist

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1861631] Re: "The AppStream system cache was updated, but some components were ignored. Refer to the verbose log for more information."

[Matthias Klumpp]

This error message is shown not to alert users, but rather make users report 
these issues to the distributor, as this particular issue means the distributor 
has a mistake in their metadata somewhere.
In this case it's not Ubuntu's fault directly, but rather GNOME Software 
injecting invalid metadata.
This is fixed upstream with commit 
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-software/commit/7c1620990b6361fac370b76c9828f8f77ff77a72
 which should land in the next Ubuntu release naturally (but may be 
cherry-picked to make this issue go away even sooner).

[Matthias Klumpp]

Technically, PPAs with AppStream data or other repositories with broken data 
can trigger this as well.
AppStream could make a guess who is to blame for the breakage and give a more 
specific error, but that will require some more extensive code changes.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1872258] [NEW] GS injects invalid metadata, causing "AppStream cache update completed, but some metadata was ignored"

[Matthias Klumpp]

Public bug reported:

Hi!
GNOME Software currently injects invalid AppStream metadata in Focal, causing a 
complaint message like "AppStream cache update completed, but some metadata was 
ignored due to errors." on every APT update.
This can be fixed by applying this patch from upstream and Debian, which was 
present in GNOME's release candidate but was accidentally reverted: 
https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/gnome-software/-/blob/05553c1bfa2124a12e3afe5c63de510310377036/debian/patches/02_fix-appstream-featured-data.patch

Debian already ships this patch.
Thanks for considering!

[Matthias Klumpp]

Ooooh, sorry... I was coming from duplicate #1864307, which the patch above 
solves, but I am not sure if this particular issue is solved as well...
So, I don't think #1864307 is a duplicate bug of this, I think those two are 
separate issues (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-software/-/issues/918 and 
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-software/issues/929 respectively)
Sorry for the noise, I'll unlink those issue reports.

IDLE has no icon, and apparently never had one:

The very best way to fix this permanently in the future would be to ask
Python upstream to add a metainfo file for IDLE as described in

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1867471] [NEW] FFe: Sync appstream 0.12.10-2 (main) from Debian unstable (main)

[Matthias Klumpp]

Public bug reported:

Please sync appstream 0.12.10-2 (main) from Debian unstable (main)

Explanation of FeatureFreeze exception:
This revision pulls in a few changes from upstream to fix issues or
prevent future annoyances:

fix-free-license-check.patch
A plain bugfix to the "is this a free license?" check of AppStream, which was
introduced in this release. In the current version, licenses which are non-free
may incorrectly be considered free. There isn't much stuff using this feature
yet, but when it does we may as well give a correct result.

ascli-explain-in-manpage.patch
A simple non-functional manual page addition, since people apparently had
a hard time to find the "--explain" switch for the AppStream validator.
There is no potential for regression in this patch.

ignore-control-relation-in-validator.patch
Control relations are defined in the upcoming version of the AppStream
specification and define how an application is controlled (keyboard, touch, 
...).
This feature is potentially used *a lot* and the current validator in Ubuntu
will consider the usage of this tag invalid.
With this patch, this tag isn't considered an error anymore, which should
annoy users and developers much less when they are working with
AppStream data on the LTS release.

update-static-data.patch
This just updates the license ID list to what is current in the SPDX
registry.

The regression potential of all of these changes is very low. Having them
will greatly improve the experience of users with AppStream metadata in
Ubuntu, and hopefully may lead to less bug reports upstream ;-)

A full debdiff of the changes is attached. The biggest change is the
non-free-licenses fix, all the other changes are simple few-line changes
or just update static data or help text.

Thanks for considering!

Changelog entries since current focal version 0.12.10-1:

appstream (0.12.10-2) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Add fix-free-license-check.patch: Non-free licenses were previously
considered free software, this patch fixes that
  * Add ascli-explain-in-manpage.patch: Explain the `--explain` flag for
`appstreamcli validate` in the manual page as well
  * Add ignore-control-relation-in-validator.patch: Don't fail validation
if control relations exists. This is an upcoming AppStream feature that
will potentially be used quite a lot.
  * Add update-static-data.patch: Update the license and TLD lists to
validate newer licenses correctly.
  * Bump standards version: No changes needed

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1567630] Re: Skype not shown as installation candidate

[Matthias Klumpp]

At this point, I think it's safe to say that implementing full multiarch 
support for AppStream simply isn't going to happen. It's simply better for app 
authors to provide native implementations for amd64 instead of relying on i386 
compatibility.
If support was implemented fully, we would download lots of additional big 
metadata and run into all kinds of troubles of which app gets selected when 
there are conflicts.
Resolving all of these issues is possible, but the huge effort IMHO doesn't 
justify the gains.

There is a workaround for high-profile packages that are only available
on one architecture: *If* i386 support is enabled by default, the
appstream-generator can be instructed to inject metadata for a specific
package directly into the final metadata collection. See
https://github.com/ximion/appstream-generator/blob/master/docs/asgen-
config.md#injecting-extra-metainfo--removing-components for details.
This is intended to be used for web applications, but may work for this
case as well.

  Skype not shown as installation candidate

Status in appstream package in Ubuntu:

Status in gnome-software package in Ubuntu:

Status in skype package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I activated Canonical Partners, but Skype did not show up when I used
  gnome-software to search for it.

  I have a theory (unconfirmed):

  I used a 64 bits Xenial, with only amd64 architecture enabled. While
  the .deb package skype is amd64, it's a meta package. The skype-bin
  package, with the important files including the .desktop file, is
  i386.

  So possibly skype would have showed up in gnome-software if I had
  first enabled i386 with

  dpkg --add-architecture i386

  OTOH, even if that's the case, I don't think it ought to be necessary.
  When using Synaptic, skype was shown.

  A possible fix (workaround?) would be to move the .desktop file from
  skype-bin to skype.

  Anyway, I could successfully install Skype from command line, and then
  it showed up in gnome-software. However, bug #1563322 applies to Skype
  too.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1718453] Re: apt does not download dep11 files for foreign architectures and appstream cannot find applications for these archs.

[Matthias Klumpp]

At this point, I think it's safe to say that implementing full multiarch 
support for AppStream simply isn't going to happen, at least not anytime soon. 
It's simply easier for app authors to provide native implementations for amd64 
instead of relying on i386 compatibility.
If support was implemented fully, we would download lots of additional big 
metadata and run into all kinds of troubles of which app gets selected when 
there are ID conflicts.
Resolving all of these issues is possible, but the huge effort IMHO doesn't 
justify the gains. If someone else works on this, I'd assist the work, but I 
will unlikely work on this myself. I originally intended to, but TBH, this 
issue has really low priority nowadays.

There is a workaround for high-profile packages that are only available
on one architecture: *If* i386 support is enabled by default, the
appstream-generator can be instructed to inject metadata for a specific
package directly into the final metadata collection. See
https://github.com/ximion/appstream-generator/blob/master/docs/asgen-
config.md#injecting-extra-metainfo--removing-components for details.
This is intended to be used for adding web applications, but may work
for the multiarch case as well, at least for a select few of high-
profile application packages.

  e.g. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=888144 for

  I would note that doing test builds on Kubuntu CI, both upstream 5.12

[Matthias Klumpp]

@donkult: The downloads for all architectures are not allowed at time,
because doing so would lead to AppStream-ID collisions, and AppStream
itself has no notion of architectures (yet - I played around with that a
bit, but there is no definitive good solution yet).

For downloading Components-all, if we would generate such a file, could
APT be configured to download that one unconditionally, no matter what
the Releases file says? Because in that case, we could do quite a few
optimizations to save disk space.

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * The cache refresh is blocked on a strdup on a non-NULL-terminated string 
in some very rare occasions (very rare because this bug is present for almost 
3y without a single report).
   * Fixing this bug resolves the issue for people who might experience it.
   * See https://github.com/ximion/appstream/issues/35 for details.

  [Test Case 1]

   * Run `sudo appstreamcli refresh --force`
   * The AppStream cache should be updated, no change in behavior should be 
seen.

  [Test Case 2]

   * In case you were experiencing the almost-infinite hang when running
  `sudo appstreamcli refresh --force`, this issue should be fixed with
  the SRU.

  [Regression Potential]

   * Very low, since this only fixes the decompression code. There
  should be no sideeffects of that (given that the patch itself doesn't
  break anything, which it shouldn't, since it has been tested upstream
  for a while)

Bug description:
  Since xenial updated the requirements for the strength of PGP
  signatures of packages, packages from some repositories are no longer
  updated. Apt-get update reports these errors:

  E: Failed to fetch http://[...]/Release  No Hash entry in Release file 
/var/lib/apt/lists/partial/[...] which is considered strong enough for security 
purposes
  E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones 
used instead.

  While the motivation for the change is valid, the result is a
  potential security problem, as the new versions of the packages that
  may fix recently discovered vulnerabilities are not automatically
  installed.

  One less important but unfortunate effect is a scary message that is
  displayed to the user, without clear explanation that the problem
  needs to be addressed by the repository owner.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1579415] Re: Ubuntu Software Center does not display third party apps or all installed apps

[Matthias Klumpp]

With Muon, Sebastien actually meant Discover, which has the same
problems like GNOME Software.

GUI applications should still be visible, and the fact that some are not shown 
is a bug in the metadata generator or (more likely) the packaging or upstream 
software.
Not all of these issues were addressed before the release, due to not enough 
manpower and probably not enough people caring about it.
See http://mhall119.com/2016/03/help-make-gnome-software-beautiful/ for how to 
report issues and fix things properly.
This should be sorted out for Yakkety, and some issues can also be fixed by 
stable-release-updates, e.g. the Krita thing would be a pretty good candidate, 
since it is highly likely a packaging bug.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1579415] Re: Ubuntu Software Center does not display third party apps or all installed apps

[Matthias Klumpp]

Synaptic and Muon look at packages, which is something different than 
applications.
Applications and software with much metadata is in a different file. We 
generate the data from packages, but it is not the same as a package. In order 
to get enough metadata out, the packages must match some criteria, and meeting 
those is the job of the individual package maintainers.
So, your bug against gnome-software is actually a bug against Krita, bug 
#1576827 in particular.

Since samba is a technical thing, it will likely never be shown in a
tool like GNOME Software, instead it will be installed in an app
actually wants it.

3rd-party repos not being able to display apps is another, different
bug, bug#1576780

So, yeah, that's the whole story. Maybe this issue can be closed in GS
as invalid.

The "nobody cared enough" statement was basically me being frustrated with not 
enough people caring to fix their metadata, something which will improve in 
future, fortunately.
(We will also have more visible diagnostic messages in Debian soon, which 
should help fixing this issue. See 
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=806740 )

Yeah, the old Ubuntu Software Center was designed to also replace Synaptic, 
while the new GNOME Software is for applications / fonts / other visible stuff 
only (the same as KDE Discover does).

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1573052] Re: [packaging] gnome-software provides a broken symlink of /usr/lib/gs-plugins-9/libgs_plugin_xdg_app_reviews.so on Ubuntu 16.04

[Matthias Klumpp]

This thing is a red herring - whatever issue you are experiencing, it
doesn't have anything to do with the broken symlink. If you want to
silence this message, you could just delete the symlink, if you want.
Otherwise, simply ignore it.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1568056] Re: Official Package-Names Not Shown in Gnome-Software

[Matthias Klumpp]

That still doesn't include information on why you need to know the package name 
at all...
In any case, most stuff in the AppStream cache can be queried via `appstreamcli 
search audovia` (and it shows the package name on the CLI).
If you really think this is necessary, I suggest you to take this upstream 
(report a bug at GNOME and link it here). If it gets accepted, we will have the 
change downstream soon.

  Official Package-Names Not Shown in Gnome-Software

Status in gnome-software package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The names of a packages (as you would type them when installing via a
  command prompt) are not indicated in gnome-software.

  Even when I use gnome-software to locate a package, I still want to
  know the package's official Ubuntu name, because I usually want to add
  that package-name to an command install list (sudo apt-get install
  package1 package2 package3), so that I can install all my packages at
  once the next time I do a fresh install.

  That fact that gnome-software can locate packages for me is great. The
  fact that it doesn't reveal the official name of the packages is
  lacking (for me).

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1576780] Re: Needs to implement the full DEP-11 icon spec for compatibility with 3rd-party repos

This bug is fixed in Yakkety and Debian testing/unstable, but still
needs to be resolved in Xenial.

Title:
  Needs to implement the full DEP-11 icon spec for compatibility with
  3rd-party repos

Status in appstream-glib package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * The AppStream YAML spec describes a way to include width/height properties 
in cached-icon metadata, which isn't forward-compatible to the old spec.
   * asglib doesn't implement the full spec in the release present in Xenial, 
so it ignores cached icons with size info, as well as it doesn't support 
several features present in the spec, e.g. the remote icon type.
   * This leads to AppStream components from 3rd-party repos/PPAs not showing 
up in GNOME Software, since asglib is unable to find icons if they use a more 
recent version of the spec.
   * The attched patch fixes this.

  [Test Case 1]

   * Close all instances of GNOME Software (also the background daemon!)
   * Launch GNOME Software again: All apps should be present, you should notice 
no change.

  [Test Case 2]

   * Close all instances of GNOME Software (also the background daemon!)
   * Get new-style metadata, e.g. from Elementary or Debian[1], or simply add 
the SIL repo which is shipping that metadata now: http://packages.sil.org/ 
(that would be the easiest way to test)
   * Launch GNOME Software again: All apps should be present, including the 
3rd-party ones (search for "FieldWorks").

  [1]: ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/stretch/main/dep11/

  [Regression Potential]

   * This is adding a missing feature, restoring compatibility with 3rd-
  party repos. The existing data should be parsed as before, so I don't
  see much regression potential ("Test Case 1" needs to work)

  [Other Info]

   * This fix has been applied upstream: 
https://github.com/hughsie/appstream-glib/commit/628e3cfb1c62c3177d6decd86102217f2546e0a2

Weird, I wonder what happened that many people are experiencing this now...
Removing `/usr/bin/appstreamcli` is fine if you install the fixed package 
afterwards.

To install this manually, please do (for amd64, adjust URLs for other
architectures):

```
cd /tmp && mkdir asfix
cd asfix
wget 
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/primary/+files/appstream_0.9.4-1ubuntu1_amd64.deb
wget 
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/primary/+files/libappstream3_0.9.4-1ubuntu1_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i *.deb
```

This should solve the issue. Please report back if this is fixed, or if
you are still experiencing issues!

@Lonnie: this is the same bug. Install the package via dpkg as described

manifests itself in some very interesting ways sometimes.

Title:
  Refresh hangs due to strdup on non-NULL terminated string

Status in appstream package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * The cache refresh is blocked on a strdup on a non-NULL-terminated string 
in some very rare occasions (very rare because this bug is present for almost 
3y without a single report).
   * Fixing this bug resolves the issue for people who might experience it.
   * See https://github.com/ximion/appstream/issues/35 for details.

  [Test Case 1]

   * Run `sudo appstreamcli refresh --force`
   * The AppStream cache should be updated, no change in behavior should be 
seen.

  [Test Case 2]

   * In case you were experiencing the almost-infinite hang when running
  `sudo appstreamcli refresh --force`, this issue should be fixed with
  the SRU.

  [Regression Potential]

   * Very low, since this only fixes the decompression code. There
  should be no sideeffects of that (given that the patch itself doesn't
  break anything, which it shouldn't, since it has been tested upstream
  for a while)

  [Other Info]

   * This fix has been applied upstream: 
https://github.com/ximion/appstream/commit/f33c520c37e2ba51d92402220250b8d501a2bf43

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * The AppStream YAML spec describes a way to include width/height properties 
in cached-icon metadata, which isn't forward-compatible to the old spec.
   * asglib doesn't implement the full spec in the release present in Xenial, 
so it ignores cached icons with size info, as well as it doesn't support 
several features present in the spec, e.g. the remote icon type.
   * This leads to AppStream components from 3rd-party repos/PPAs not showing 
up in GNOME Software, since asglib is unable to find icons if they use a more 
recent version of the spec.
   * The attched patch fixes this.

  [Test Case 1]

   * Close all instances of GNOME Software (also the background daemon!)
   * Launch GNOME Software again: All apps should be present, you should notice 
no change.

  [Test Case 2]

   * Close all instances of GNOME Software (also the background daemon!)
   * Get new-style metadata, e.g. from Elementary or Debian[1], or simply add 
the SIL repo which is shipping that metadata now: http://packages.sil.org/ 
(that would be the easiest way to test)
   * Launch GNOME Software again: All apps should be present, including the 
3rd-party ones (search for "FieldWorks").

  [1]: ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/stretch/main/dep11/

  [Regression Potential]

   * This is adding a missing feature, restoring compatibility with 3rd-
  party repos. The existing data should be parsed as before, so I don't
  see much regression potential ("Test Case 1" needs to work)

I think a high priority is the better fit now, since this - for some
reason - started to hit more users than expected now, and the
manifestations of this bug are very annoying. It doesn't cause data loss
or is a critical security issue though.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1579712] Re: Refresh hangs due to strdup on non-NULL terminated string

[Matthias Klumpp]

@Brett: When the AppStream cache update is triggered, the APT cache is updated, 
so updates will still be installed. Ideally, the fixed package is shipped via 
x-updates soon, so no more people get trapped.
SRU verification is done at least, and we now have more than enough people 
confirming the bugfix :)

  Just ran `sudo apt-get update`, which is hanging indefinitely after
  the downloads complete, the last CLI output from which is:

  Fetched 733 kB in 1s (399 kB/s)

  Looking at `top` suggests `appstreamcli` is the culprit as it's pegged
  at near 100% CPU usage:

   100  0.1  18:29.02 appstreamcli

  If I kill the hung `sudo apt-get update` process with Control+C, the
  `appstreamcli` process goes away.

  Retrying `sudo apt-get update` has the same result.

  On a whim I also tried `sudo apt update`, but it seems to have the
  same problem. It hangs indefinitely and running it results in an
  `appstreamcli` process consuming 100% CPU.

[Matthias Klumpp]

I made the summary less technical, so maybe fewer duplicates of this get 
reported when people go through the bug list. I also added instructions on how 
to fix this immediately without removing packages or moving config files around 
to the bug description, so people who find this bug don't need to read the 
whole thread to get their machines working properly again.

Can be fixed when convenient (by just removing that symlink or applying the

FWIW, just making Aptdaemon stop to pretend to be PackageKit and then adjust 
the dependent packages to not require the compat layer explicitly should also 
do the job.
(we did that at Debian, and right now, only one package still explicitly

  Needs to implement the full DEP-11 icon spec for compatibility with
  3rd-party repos

Status in appstream-glib package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * The AppStream YAML spec describes a way to include width/height properties 
in cached-icon metadata, which isn't forward-compatible to the old spec.
   * asglib doesn't implement the full spec in the release present in Xenial, 
so it ignores cached icons with size info, as well as it doesn't support 
several features present in the spec, e.g. the remote icon type.
   * This leads to AppStream components from 3rd-party repos/PPAs not showing 
up in GNOME Software, since asglib is unable to find icons if they use a more 
recent version of the spec.
   * The attched patch fixes this.

  [Test Case 1]

   * Close all instances of GNOME Software (also the background daemon!)
   * Launch GNOME Software again: All apps should be present, you should notice 
no change.

  
  [Test Case 2]

   * Close all instances of GNOME Software (also the background daemon!)
   * Get new-style metadata, e.g. from Elementary or Debian[1]
   * Launch GNOME Software again: All apps should be present, including the 
3rd-party ones.
