--- Comment #2 from Malte S. Stretz <m...@apache.org> --- Some more spelunking brought me to /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50appstream which contains a call to appstreamcli refresh --source=os and when I execute that in debug mode it looks like it should create the symlinks but fails because... it thinks they exist already??? But that's not the case...
