Created attachment 845028 [details] Output of journalctl -S 2021-01-12 -u packagekit.service after blocking fwupd plugin As described in https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-software/-/issues/1118#note_998952, fwupd plugin got blocked. Result is still the same as before. This behaviour usually only happens if there are updates/patches available (you might have been 'unlucky' when reproducing it during the holidays). I confirmed that new updates would be available to be installed: linux:/home/chris/gs-issues # zypper lu Loading repository data... Reading installed packages...

Please let me know if you again need the full-blown output as I provided before.
