Snap-store problem on Kubuntu 18.10

The snap-store on Kubuntu does not show anything, on Ubuntu with GNOME I do not have this problem:

Log da cli:

do you mean on the very same machine when you switch to a GNOME desktop session or is this a different machine where you installed kubuntu and the snap-store snap ?

if it is the latter, did you make sure to have all interfaces connected (check with snap interfaces snap-store if there are unconnected ones, there is a thread here in the forum where autoconnection of the missing bits is disucssed)

Ubuntu 18.10 with GNOME is in a different partition, clean installation, the interfaces are all connected:

thats definitely a bug then … leaving further comments to @kenvandine :slight_smile:

This is the start of snap-store on Ubuntu, same version of the snap (edge channel) and same interfaces connected, same version of snapd and Ubuntu, that is 18.10:

Logs on startup from cli, show messages on Ubuntu GNOME:
