"winget source update" doesn't work via ssh

[Rarder44]

Brief description of your issue

connecting via ssh to a machine and running the "winget source update" command the winget source (and other sources using the "source.msix" package) is not updated.
( as in screenshot )
Fatto = Done
Annullato = Canceled

every now and then the message "done" comes out but in any case the source is not updated (by relaunching the command the loading bar reappears)

if the same command is run locally, everything works.

I attach the winget log:
WinGet-2023-07-27-14-54-26.620.log

however, I made a powershell script that downloads the "source.msix" packages one by one and installs them; the workaround also works via ssh and by re-running the "winget source update" command the packages are detected as updated.

updateWingetSources.ps1.txt

the script should also work in multiple languages but since it relies on a regex to find some data and i only tested it in italian, give me some feedback....
( by the way, sorry but the comments are in Italian... )

Steps to reproduce

PC 1:
install OpenSSH
install / update winget ( 1.5.1881 / 1.6.1573-preview i tried both )

PC 2:
connect via ssh to PC 1 ( ssh admin@192.168.XXX.XXX )
run the command "winget source update"
(warning: if there are no packages to update, everything seems to work but simply because it is not installing any ".msix")

Expected behavior

that the sources are updated correctly

Actual behavior

the "source.msix" sources are detected to be updated but are not installed

Environment

PC 1 (as in the example):

WinGet currently doesn't work via SSH. This is most likely an outcome of the App Installer being installed as an MSIX package and the differences between the "account" a user is connecting to when they use SSH.
