Title:
  Ubuntu Software tab Installed refreshing endlessly every 2 seconds

Status in fwupd package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in gnome-software package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I have fresh installed Ubuntu 16.04 Desktop 32-bit. After each install
  for years one of the first thing I do is uninstall some of the
  applications that I don't need to preserve some downloading/installing
  of applications that I don't need.

  I opened Ubuntu Software, click on Installed tab and now the problem
  appears. Every two seconds whole screen gets to gray and refreshing
  appears which takes 2 seconds. This loops endlessly. It is very
  frustrating, because Ubuntu Software is unusable in my case.

  I have asked the question on forum:
  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2326701&p=13498876 and one of
  suggestion was to remove the software and install it back.

  I did:
  sudo apt install gnome-software
  sudo apt purge gnome-software
  sudo apt autoremove
  sudo apt autoclean
  sudo apt install gnome-software

  Started Ubuntu Software and the problem remains the same.

  P.S. New problem appeared now Ubuntu Software icon on Launcher is not
  the same (orange color), but it has changed (white color). But this is
  not huge problem, just annoyance.
