This error comes from something bundled in gnome-packagekit. I have come across three solutions to this problem disable /yum/pluginconf.d [main] enabled=0 This has not worked for me.

It has opened once with GUI, but installation of Unity Tweak authentication is required Tool didn't finish. When starting again, GUI doesn't come up. When opening from terminal, a warning appears, but the application GUI doesn't open. $ gnome-software (gnome-software:7052): Gs-WARNING: failed to open plugin /usr/lib/gs-plugins-9/libgs_plugin_xdg_app_reviews.so: /usr/lib/gs-plugins-9/libgs_plugin_xdg_app_reviews.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Does anybody have same experience, and eventually, a solution?

It should show one or more packages to which this file belongs; hopefully it's gnome-softwarecenter or something like that. Can you please reinstall that package with sudo apt-get install -f --reinstall and tell me if that helps? Include any error messages in your question that you encounter in the process. –David Foerster Apr 24 at 11:19 i have the same problem as you do;
