Bug ID: 504799
Summary: Respect "Default Source" even if appstream data is not
accurate
Classification: Applications
Product: Discover
Version First 6.3.5
Reported In:
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: discover
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: epictux...@proton.me
CC: aleix...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
When searching on Plasma Discover, it seems that some apps only have appstream
data for their Flatpak version.
Sometimes, Discover shows both the system package and the Flatpak version as
separate apps (duplicate entries), and sometimes it only shows one of them.
However, for some apps that have only one entry type (system package or
Flatpak), after acessing its page, Discover suddenly knows there is also the
other format available for download (I can then select "From Fedora Linux" or
"From Flathub").
My suggestion is that, after Discover suddenly knows about the existence of the
new format, it should prioritize what the user has set as the Default Source in
Discover's Settings.
===================
EXAMPLE
My default source is system packages (RPM format).
I search for "Firefox" in Discover, and I only get the Flatpak version in the
results.
I click to view its details, and it comes as a package "From Flathub", even
though my default source is system packages.
EXPECTED RESULT
Package should be "From Fedora Linux", if available, even though only the
Flathub app appeared in the search results.
OBSERVED RESULT
Package is from Flathub, not respecting default source.
