Description Lukas Ruzicka 2018-03-19 14:33:05 UTC 
Description of problem:

Gnome-software is unable to operate and does not allow working with packages.
This has already been started in this bug #1554981, but the original bug was hijacked to modular repository.

I have no modular repository enabled, but I am still experiencing this same problem:

After a start, gnome-software claims to be downloading the package information, but it never displays any available packages, only placeholders (with three dots) and as time goes by, the placeholders constantly disappear until a blank page remains with no packages to select. 

The original bug has screenshots, I will try to link them here.

I strongly think that this is a serious blocker, since gnome-software belongs to core applications and it needs to operate normally, otherwise no work cannot be done with it.

How reproducible:

Always

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Run gnome-software
2. Click on a category

Actual results:

As described

Expected results:

Should be working with no problems.

Comment 3 Fedora Blocker Bugs Application 2018-03-19 14:36:38 UTC 
Proposed as a Blocker for 28-beta by Fedora user lruzicka using the blocker tracking app because:

 Gnome-software is not working properly. It is a core application and should be working without any issues.

Are you sure this is not just https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1544193 ?
Comment 5 Adam Williamson 2018-03-19 21:18:11 UTC 
Discussion during blocker review meeting confirmed this is a dupe of 1544193.
