Firstly, for Debian bugs, please use the Debian bug tracker.

You need to make sure libappstream4 is updated to 0.12.2-2 - the fix for
the bug I point out below is in the library and not the tool itself.

Secondly, this is actually a different error to the one this bug was
talking about. If this were an Ubuntu bug, it should be a new one.

Your problem looks like Debian bug #906538 to me, which happily is fixed
in both Debian and Ubuntu already.
