An upload of gnome-software to zesty-proposed has been rejected from the upload queue for the following reason: "This upload also includes version 3.22.7-0ubuntu3.17.04.3 of gnome-software which fixes bug 1689425, however this bug does not appear in the Launchpad-Bugs-Fixed section of the .changes file (https://launchpadlibrarian.net/320895234/gnome-software_3.22.7-0ubuntu3.17.04.4_source.changes) as such that bug won't be tracked as a part of the SRU when it should be.

As part of a recent change in the Stable Release Update verification policy we would like to inform that for a bug to be considered verified for a given release a verification-done-$RELEASE tag needs to be added to the bug where $RELEASE is the name of the series the package that was tested (e.g. verification-done-xenial). Please note that the global 'verification-done' tag can no longer be used for this purpose.

Thank you!

I installed gnome-software 3.22.7-0ubuntu3.17.04.5 on Ubuntu GNOME 17.04.

I ran gnome-software --verbose
and verified that after reaching the search input limit, there are no more logging messages from the snap plugin.

I also verified gnome-software 3.20.1+git20170524.0.ea2fe2b0-0ubuntu0.16.10.1 on Ubuntu GNOME 16.10. The logging messages stopped after reaching the search input limit.

This bug was fixed in the package gnome-software - 3.20.1+git20170524.0.ea2fe2b0-0ubuntu0.16.04.1
