SRU verification for Xenial:
I have reproduced the problem with gnome-software 3.20.5-0ubuntu0.16.04.10 in 
xenial-updates and have verified that the version of gnome-software 
3.20.5-0ubuntu0.16.04.11 in -proposed fixes the issue.

Marking as verification-done

  [Impact]
  GNOME Software can show incorrect version of snap that will be installed on 
details page.
  
  [Test Case]
- 1. Open GNOME Software. Ensure blender snap is not installed.
- 2. Select blender snap (tried 28-04-2018, may change if store versions are 
changed)
+ 1. Open GNOME Software. Ensure blender or spotify snap is not installed.
+ 2. Select blender or spotify  snap (tried 28-04-2018, may change if store 
versions are changed)
  
  Expected result:
  Version label shows version to be installed (stable channel by default)
  
  Observed result:
  Version label shows most recently uploaded version, i.e. from the edge 
channel. This is not the version that will be installed when clicking install.
  
  [Regression Potential]
  The logic around choosing which version value to show was changed. Could 
create other bugs with this data.
  
  Orignial text:
  
  Ubuntu Software, when showing metadata about a snap package, is most of
  the time, likely to get information which is misleading, since it shows
  info from the *most recently* uploaded snap, regardless of which channel
  the snap was uploaded to.
  
  An example of this is to search for blender, and see that the version
  shows the edge channel - 2.80-4de142e0b7b and not the stable channel -
  2.79.
  
  After actually installing the application, the correct metadata is
  shown.
