Description Baptiste POUGET 2016-10-11 20:54:07 UTC 
Description of problem:

A copr repo can break gnome-software's look for software and make it display almost nothing without showing any error.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Fedora 25 (upgraded from Fedora 24)

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add a copr repo like this one : "duffert/qtox-latest"
2. Run gnome-software
3. See there is no software
4. run 'pkcon refresh force'
5. See the error message (Erreur fatale: Status code: 404 for https://copr-be.cloud.fedoraproject.org/results/duffert/qtox-latest/pubkey.gpg
) in french (= fatal error 404 in english)
6. Run 'dnf copr remove duffert/qtox-latest' (in this case)
7. Run 'pkcon refresh force' again
8. See no error
9. Run gnome-software
10. See software

Actual results:

There is no way for the user to guess why gnome-software doesnt find anything

Expected results:

At least throw an error message or skip the broken repo without breaking everything

Additional info:

It happened when upgrading from Fedora 24 to 25 beta
