[Johannes Niediek]

I still see the problem on Debian, could you elaborate which package
contains the fix?

Info:

> dpkg-query -s appstream

Package: appstream
Status: install ok installed
Priority: optional
Section: admin
Installed-Size: 656
Maintainer: Matthias Klumpp <mak at debian.org>
Architecture: amd64

> appstreamcli refresh-cache

(appstreamcli:3963): GLib-CRITICAL **: 09:07:57.805:
g_variant_builder_end: assertion '!GVSB(builder)->uniform_item_types ||
GVSB(builder)->prev_item_type != NULL || g_variant_type_is_definite

and so on.

Bug description:
  When running

    sudo apt update

  in a terminal I sometimes see the following message printed within the
  output.

    (appstreamcli:18640): GLib-CRITICAL **: 17:47:38.047:
  g_atomic_ref_count_dec: assertion 'g_atomic_int_get (arc) > 0' failed

  This started happening today (5th August). Otherwise apt update and
  apt upgrade seem to correctly update the system.
