[Bug 1910803] Re: update-manager display a blank window in version 1:20.04.10.2

[roots]

I can confirm this bug:

Ubuntu Focal 20.04 LTS
update-manager 1:20.04.10.2. 
5.10.0-6.2-liquorix-amd64
MATE Desktop

I also confirm that the rollback to 1:20.04.10.1 solves the issue for me
as well - thanks a lot @dominix for this pointer!


Cheers,

Title:
  update-manager display a blank window in version 1:20.04.10.2

Status in update-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  First I have upgraded update-manager-core update-manager python3
  -update-manager to version 1:20.04.10.2  on my Focal LTS 20.04 machine

  then after "apt update" update-manager shows up to propose the upgrade of the system.
  this windows is correctly displayed, but if I click on "upgrade" then a new empty windows appear and do not show nothing and the process of upgrading is stopped.

  the only way to retrieve functionnality is to roll-back to version
  1:20.04.10.1

  "sudo apt install --reinstall update-manager-core=1:20.04.10.1 update-
  manager=1:20.04.10.1 python3-update-manager=1:20.04.10.1"

  then things are back to normal.

  I have tested this process on Three focal machine with same results,
  so it looks 1:20.04.10.2 clearly has a bug.

  thanks for your continuous support. regards.
