Software and Updates starts, it just fails to find a distribution template for PureOS

I believe this is the same problem as T660. In my case, this application does not launch. Fortunately, I do not use it very much.

Grrr, this means a distro patch to python-qpt got reverted in PureOS somehow.
I will have a look, thanks for the direct bug assignment!

I was commenting on a PureOS forum topic, and I discovered the same error when using Software->left application icon->Software Repositories. My system log file displayed the above stack.
I assume Software uses the same utility to find the repositories. This is probably not a revelation, but it is another data point.

It looks like the patch was put in upstream python-apt https://metadata.ftp-master.debian.org/changelogs//main/p/python-apt/python-apt_1.8.4_changelog
It doesn't look like we bring it into PureOS however. It appears at the moment that python-apt is being rebuilt;
$ apt-cache policy python-apt python-apt: Installed: 1.8.1pureos1 Candidate: 1.8.1pureos1 Version table: *** 1.8.1pureos1 500 500 https://repo.puri.sm/pureos green/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

A newer version of the GNOME Software application (gnome-software and gnome-software-common) still produces this bug. I think Matthias is pointing to the fact that the issue is in python-apt and that is independent from GNOME Software.

Hmm... This is the last changelog entry for python-apt:
python-apt (1.8.1pureos1) green; urgency=medium
[ Jonas Smedegaard ]
* Fork for PureOS:
+ Set PureOS Maintainers as maintainer,
leaving original as XSBC-Original-Maintainer.
+ Drop uploaders (package is team-maintained for PureOS).
+ Replace Vcs-* fields.
+ Update git-buildpackage config:
- Set branches.
- Use purism/* namespace for release tags.
- Avoid use pristine-tar.
- Drop prebuild script.
- Drop export-dir.
+ Add README.source.
[ Matthias Klumpp ]
* Add PureOS distribution information.
-- Jonas Smedegaard <dr[at]jones.dk> Mon, 28 Jan 2019 15:06:24 +0100Looks like my patch from the previous version before Jonas rebased it was not applied completely, as the files in data/templates for PureOS are missing, causing this bug. I'll fix this by adding them back.

This is fixed in python-apt >= 1.8.4pureos1 - please verify that this works for you. The new version should reach the green channel in a few days.

I just updated my system (PureOS - all updates on Librem 13v3), and "Software and Updates" does not work. From Tilex:
python-apt/green,now 1.8.4pureos1 amd64 [installed,automatic]

Is that really an accurate template in the last line?

This is now a new issue, caused by a change in lsb-release which was switched to exclusively read /etc/os-release and started to capitalize the distribution-ID, which works for Debian, but not for PureOS.
I submitted a patch upstream: https://salsa.debian.org/debian/lsb/merge_requests/1
This should finally resolve the issue. Please ensure you have base-files >= 10.1pureos4 and lsb-release >= 10.2019031300pureos1 installed before testing!
Cheers,
Matthias
