The Software Updater does not find the directory /usr/share/appdata, so is unable to successfully install new software. The directory appears to exist and has a few files within it, presumably the items that are installed by default.

Bug Description

The O/S was installed on a solid state disk drive, as the config info you got probably suggests. That drive has been in use for ~4 years. Please advise on how I should proceed.
