Title:
  Appstream does not install config file

Status in appstream package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in subiquity package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  After performing an Ubuntu automated server install, and installing
  the ubuntu-desktop-minimal package (which includes appstream as a
  dependency) then the snap-store, the snap-store will fail to display
  search results for .deb packages in the Ubuntu apt repositories.

  This is due to a missing config file (/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50appstream)
  which is supposed to be installed as part of the appstream package.

  The issue can be fixed by re-installing appstream with the following command-line:
  apt-get -y install --reinstall -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-confmiss" appstream
