Ubuntu’s App Center doesn’t know what went wrong

I recently re-encountered my favourite ‘error’ dialog in Ubuntu, which is thrown by the distro’s App Center (snap-store), which is the default GUI software management tool. Now, I don’t see it often, but when I do it (un)helpfully informs me: “Something went wrong. We’re sorry, but we’re not sure what the error is.” I appreciate its honesty and sympathise with the general sense of unease it…
