More in general, all pkcon transactions that prompt the user with a question like "Proceed with changes? [N/y]" will crash after completing the transaction. This is fixed by correcting a reference counting issue which was causing a double-free. [ Test Case 1 ] 1. Run `pkcon install 2048` 2. Answer `n` to "Proceed with changes? [N/y]" 3. Verify that pkcon does not print GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: 12:02:00.011: g_object_unref: assertion 'G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed [ Test Case 2 ] 1. Run `pkcon install 2048` 2. Answer `y` to "Proceed with changes? [N/y]" 3. Complete the install 4. Verify that pkcon did not crash with segmentation fault [ Where things could go wrong ] If the fix is too broad, we could be leaking memory, but pkcon is not a daemon anyways. If the fix is not broad enough, the issue might still be happening in specific cases we haven't tested.
