Description zachquinn08 2026-05-02 15:44:23 UTC
Description of problem: After upgrading from Fedora 43 to Fedora 44, my Gnome Software application is hanging on "Refreshing Data" around 66%. Even after a Restart, when I open the window, this is all I see. 


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible: My guess is this has to do with 3rd party packages? I'm not sure. I have some RPM packages installed. I presume this depends on an individual's configuration. It is likely not easily reproducible. 


Steps to Reproduce:
1.Have Fedora 43 installation 
2.Upgrade to Fedora 44 via Gnome Software Center
3.Open Gnome Software

Actual results: Gnome Software hangs on "Refreshing Data"


Expected results: Gnome Software successfully updates package repos and shows the Home UI.
