gnome-software don't install e.g gnome-tweak tool

[Per-Inge]

When installing gnome-tweak-tool and also chromium, gnome-tweak-tool provides the error message "Enable Third-party Software Source? GNOME Tweaks is provided by "ubuntu-artful-universe". This software source must be enabled to continue installation. Cancel Enable to continue installation"

However this source is already enabled and Packages will install gnome-tweak-tool.

There is also problems with the search function. When you start gnome-software and search for e.g tweak no results are presented. However if you click on the desktop outside of gnome-software results are presented.

thank you for your bug report, the universe message has already been reported as bug #1709657

I can't confirm the search bug, do you get it every time? is it a rendering issue? could you make a small screencast showing the problem?

[Per-Inge (per-inge-hallin)]

I get the problem after a new install. I have my configurations file in
Dropbox and my bookmarks in Chrome/Chromium. It's essential to me that it's
easy to install these packages.

Today I used the 2/9 daily and Software provided this message both at
installation of Dropbox and Chromium.
"Enable Third-party Software Source? Dropbox is provided by
"ubuntu-artful-universe". This software source must be enabled to continue
installation. Cancel Enable and Install."
When I use Enable and Install I get the message
"Unable to install Dropbox
[system/packages/ubuntu-artful-universe/desktop/dropbox.desktop/*] E:Could
not find the repository"

However GNOME Packages installs OK and both Dropbox and Chromium install OK
with GNOME Packages.

When I search for Chromium after the installation with Packages, Software
provides no results, but if I click on the desktop outside of Software the
result is provided.

When I click on All in Software Dropbox and Chromium are not shown as
installed. "Install..." is shown instead of the expected "Remove."
