Public bug reported:

Issue present since reinstall of Ubuntu. Originally thought similar to
(https://askubuntu.com/questions/789966/software-updates-crashes-and-
will-not-open) but solutions did not work, even though terminal output
(https://pastebin.com/FpD1MFC3) is highly similar.

I have tested using a new user and the issue remains.

A note on attempted solutions. Reinstalling dbus/dbus-x11 and following
the noted askubuntu thread did not help.
