Adding to the list above: had same blocker on starting `update-manager` as #14, worked through the following sequence

Test update manager:

❯ update-manager
    Gtk.main()
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gi/overrides/Gtk.py", line 1687, in main
    with register_sigint_fallback(Gtk.main_quit):
  File "/usr/lib/python3.11/contextlib.py", line 144, in __exit__
    next(self.gen)
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gi/_ossighelper.py", line 237, in register_sigint_fallback
    signal.default_int_handler(signal.SIGINT, None)
KeyboardInterrupt

Execute aptd -r, exited with note on package: shredder

❯ sudo aptd -r
10:19:41 AptDaemon [INFO]: Initializing daemon
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/aptdaemon/worker/pkworker.py:35: PyGIWarning: PackageKitGlib
...
pkg_resources.extern.packaging.version.InvalidVersion: Invalid version: '2.9.0.Odd.Olm'
(package: Shredder)

apt search on shredder pointed to rmlint

❯ apt search shredder

rmlint-gui/lunar,now 2.9.0-2.3 all [installed,automatic]
  GTK+ frontend to rmlint

Purge rmlint:

❯ sudo apt purge rmlint

Software updater executed OK after these steps.

Quick comparison between syncthing-gtk and rmlint-gui turns up 2 common deps if this helps:

- gir1.2-rsvg-2.0
- python3-gi-cairo

Additionally, "shredder" was an earlier product name for `rmlint-gui`, https://rmlint.readthedocs.io/en/latest/gui.html
