Thanks for the help. I did run "journalctl -b -1" after a failed

python3[1168]: can't communicate with ABRT daemon, is it running?

That does seem to be the issue.

I created an F29 VM.  When I booted I logged in and found the process
/usr/sbin/abrtd -d -s running.

I killed it and tried to do an update with the gnome-software tool
and got the same result as you did.

What is the output of

systemctl --no-pager -l status abrtd
It is active and running, but that of course is after a normal boot up.
Should ABRT also be running in the special boot process when Gnome
Software tries to update the software packages?


I don't know.  But, I'm guessing that it my be dying at some point after you 
hit the button to start the update.

Assuming you're now rebooted after a previous failed attempt what is the output 
of

journalctl -b -1 --unit=abrtd

If simple questions can be answered with a simple google query then why are 
there so many of them?
