Description Harald Sitter 2016-05-17 09:00:04 UTC 
it can occur that appstream data is unavailable for whatever reason. in such a case a user visible message should be raised somehow to inform them that their system is broken.

Reproducible: Always

Don't assert that the appstream db is present

We show an error message already.
