[Test Case] 1. Create and install a local snap: $ mkdir -p /tmp/broken-snap/meta $ printf "name: broken-snap\nversion: 1\n" > /tmp/broken-snap/meta/snap.yaml $ sudo snap try /tmp/broken-snap 2. Break the snap $ rm /tmp/broken-snap/meta/snap.yaml 3. Confirm the snap is broken: $ snap list Name Version Rev Developer Notes broken-snap x1 try,broken 4. Restart gnome-software $ killall gnome-software 5. Open GNOME Software and go to installed tab. Wait for items to load. Expected result: Installed snaps are shown Observed result: GNOME Software crashes. [Regression Potential] Fix is to handle fields missing in broken snaps. Some risk of breaking related code.
