Size of not-installed applications is "Calculating..." in Details section

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Hello Amr, or anyone else affected,

Accepted gnome-software into xenial-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-software/3.20.1+git20160426.1.a976144-ubuntu-xenial-0ubuntu1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance!

After updating to the version in xenial-proposed, I had to end the gnome-software process because it was open in the background.

It is fixed. I can see the size of non-installed apps.

This bug was fixed in the package gnome-software - 3.20.1+git20160426.1.a976144-ubuntu-xenial-0ubuntu1

I don't believe I've recieved an update for this yet. I assume it goes out
when Ubuntu releases the updates?
