There's a system daemon as well as a setuid binary, so I'm going to put this onto security for a quick look first.
Robert, as for breaking gnome-software into modules, I get why Debian doesn't want to. But Ubuntu can separately patch out or in support for backends to offer one . I imagine we'll patch in snappy or click support?
Maybe it makes sense to patch out support for the less popular backends or ones we're less interested in.
