            Bug ID: 447403
           Summary: Feature request - show which repo an install is coming
                    from
           Product: Discover
           Version: 5.23.4
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: discover
          Assignee: lei...@leinir.dk
          Reporter: k...@flavor8.com
                CC: aleix...@kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

PPAs are for better or worse widespread. (To my understanding) if a PPA were to
be compromised, an attacker could introduce packages outside of the core scope
of the PPA (e.g. somebody could introduce a backdoored version of systemd via a
pipewire PPA). For this reason, it'd be useful if Discover shows which repo a
package update is coming from, to give the user a chance to see something
unusual.
