Screenshot of the problem

Description of problem:
GNOME Software contains no data.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-software-3.10.4-2.fc20.x86_64

How reproducible:
Any time I run GNOME Software, I see no data.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Fedora 20 with Xfce (aka not with GNOME)
2. yum update
3. yum install gnome-software
4. Run GNOME Software from application menu

Actual results:
No data, see attached screenshot.

Expected results:
GNOME Software full of available software.

Additional info:
I guess that's some missing dependency.

What does "gnome-software --verbose" say? GNOME Software was not designed for XFCE, and has had basically zero testing there,

Comment 3 Miro Hrončok 2014-04-10 16:05:15 UTC
BTW it works fine on my other machine with Xfce. But I have installed the package long time ago here.

Comment 4 Richard Hughes 2014-04-10 17:12:28 UTC
(gnome-software:18952): Gs-WARNING **: failed to get popular apps: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.PackageKit was not provided by any .service files

Is packagekitd crashing? Is packagekit present?

Comment 5 Miro Hrončok 2014-04-10 17:39:25 UTC
Does gnome-software depend on PackageKit?

Nope. See my first post.

> I guess that's some missing dependency.

I don't have the access to this machine, but when I uninstall PackageKit here, I see the vary same thing happening, so that's 99 % the case.

My conclusion: gnome-software should depend either on PackageKit or some other component that would bring it in.

    Add PackageKit and gnome-icon-theme-symbolic as runtime deps
