Title:
  ubuntu-software keeps being replaced by snap-store

Status in update-manager package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  In Focal, ubuntu-software (well, really gnome-software) has been
  replaced by the snap-store snap. If one chooses to remove that snap
  and reinstall ubuntu-software, they are forced to switch back to snap-
  store in the next run of update-manager.

  This is because update-manager only checks whether gnome-software was
  manually installed to determine whether it should be replaced or not.
  If the user installs it via ubuntu-software instead, gnome-software
  appears auto-installed and thus re-replaced.
