[errors.ubuntu.com bug bridge]

* Impact
gnome-software segfaults in the snap handling code in some cases

* Test case
No specific steps to test but look at the error reports, there should be no entry for the next version

* Regression potential
The code is just changing the installation date info, check that this one is still rightly displayed for most snaps
