Description
### What Happened?
When launching AppCenter from the Dock, it starts up, starts checking for updates, and while in the “Getting app information” phase, crashes.
When launching from the Terminal with `io.elementay.appcenter` it exhibits the same behavior, but upon crash one can observe an error message akin to the following:
`(io.elementary.appcenter:4104): GLib-CRITICAL **: 11:46:44.226: g_strsplit: assertion 'string != NULL' failed
Segmentation fault`
An attempt to get things fixed by running
`sudo flatpak repair`
unfortunately didn’t lead to different outcomes.
### Steps to Reproduce
Launch and get the crash
### Expected Behavior
Launch and no crash
### OS Version
7.x (Horus)
### Software Version
Latest release (I have run all updates)
### Log Output
```shell
(io.elementary.appcenter:4104): GLib-CRITICAL **: 11:46:44.226: g_strsplit: assertion 'string != NULL' failed
```
