Unable to open software-properties-gtk

Hardware
1

If I go into gnome-software > menu > software repositories

Nothing happens.

If I try : software-properties-gtk

in the terminal, I get:

No protocol specified

Trying to purge and reinstall the package doesn’t work. I probably screwed up somewhere, would appreciate any help.

I’m having the same issue right after a fresh install of PureOS and its update.

Seems to be a bug.

Please report the bug to our issue tracker.

Prior to that, perform a full upgrade:

sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade

Somebody reported it already: https://tracker.pureos.net/T660

sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade

hasn’t solved it for me.

Has anybody found any way to fix this? sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade doesn’t fix it.
