--- Comment #4 from Alex Ball <a.j.b...@bath.ac.uk> ---
On further investigation, I found the trigger for this problem lies outside
Muon. If I would run, say:

    apt-cache show kdevelop

it would display only the first line of the description:

    Description: integrated development environment for KDE

The same command on my Kubuntu machine shows the full description:

    Description-en_GB: integrated development environment for KDE
     KDevelop is an easy to use integrated development environment...(etc.)

This tipped me off that the problem lay with apt not downloading translations.
Sure enough, I found that with the default KDE neon install, the file
/etc/apt/apt.conf contains the line

    Acquire::Languages "none";

Removing that line and doing a 'sudo apt update' brought down the full
descriptions, and now Muon is displaying them just fine.

If this is a valid bug against muon, it is in reference to its handling of
missing/incomplete package descriptions.
