Same here.

Just wanted to point out that even if this bug is fixed, a normal user who is not familiar with command-line tools probably won't be able to get an updated version of gnome-software.

Likely a dup of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1514791 and already fixed by https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2017-e3a3ec01d1 that's in updates-testing. Can you give it a try and leave karma in the update ticket if it fixes it for you? Thanks!
