[neon] [Bug 449006] Discover does not find KDE apps from distro (neon unstable) repos
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=449006 --- Comment #16 from Juan Luis Baptiste --- Hi guys, Thank you for the insightful answers, I just wanted to understand the reasoning behind not displaying available software from all available sources, independent if they are a gui app or whatever. I now understand the technical requirement of needing appstream metadata for an app to be displayed on Discover, but I still wonder why packages that do not have it should end up "hidden" from an app like Discover, which is the go-to option for an user that wants to install any software using the desktop's GUI. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
[neon] [Bug 449006] Discover does not find KDE apps from distro (neon unstable) repos
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=449006 --- Comment #5 from Juan Luis Baptiste --- Hi, I'm sorry for reviving an old bug, but I'm having this issue on Kubuntu 24.10 with backports PPA enabled, using Plasma 6.1.5. Deb packages available for installation with apt install do not appear when searching for them on the Discover app. For example: $ apt-cache search heimdall heimdall-flash - tool for flashing firmware on Samsung Galaxy S devices heimdall-flash-frontend - tool for flashing firmware on Samsung Galaxy S devices - Qt GUI But when searching for heimdall-flash in Discover, it isn't found (see attachment). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=449006 --- Comment #9 from Juan Luis Baptiste --- heimdall was just an example, with the one that I came to realize this behavior, but probable there are plenty other packages. I, as an user I would expect to be able to find all available software in the app store from all configured sources in my system, no just the ones with a GUI or a flatpak or snap package, I don't see the advantage of leaving out the deb packages, but those are just my 2c. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
[neon] [Bug 449006] Discover does not find KDE apps from distro (neon unstable) repos
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=449006 --- Comment #7 from Juan Luis Baptiste --- (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #6) > It's not a Discover bug; it's an intentional packaging decision in Neon to > hide apps from the distro repos from Discover. The intention is for people > to use Discover to get apps from Flatpak or Snap. There's nothing Discover > can do about this. But my issue is on Kubuntu 24.10 with the backports PPA enabled, or is it an upstream decision? also, I'm curious in what's the logic behind that decision? there are plenty of deb packages which aren't available as snaps or flatpaks that would be undiscoverable to new users not familiar with the Debian packaging tools. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
[neon] [Bug 449006] Discover does not find KDE apps from distro (neon unstable) repos
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=449006 --- Comment #11 from Juan Luis Baptiste --- But Synaptic is for installing deb packages only, my point is why not have a single interface for all software sources? what's the reasoning behind that decision? IIRC, Discover did not behave like this always. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
[neon] [Bug 449006] Discover does not find KDE apps from distro (neon unstable) repos
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=449006 --- Comment #12 from Juan Luis Baptiste --- Searching I found a package called plasma-discover-backend-packagekit, that as I understand it, it should provide support for distribution packages. The curious thing is that if I search for it on Discover, it seems to be already installed because I can see the remove icon (the trash can), but I cannot find it installed as a snap, flatpak or deb package. Based on the versions listed on https://apps.kde.org/discover.packagekit/, it seems it is available with Plasma 6.3? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

[kwalletmanager] [Bug 345412] Can't access the KWallet in KDE 5, since latest updates in Kubuntu Vivid
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=345412 Juan Luis Baptiste changed: What|Removed |Added CC||juan.bapti...@gmail.com --- Comment #36 from Juan Luis Baptiste --- Hi, I'm also seeing this on a kubuntu 15.10 install, first login ok, then every logout/login will ask for the kde5 and kde wallet migration manager password. Only when rebooting and login again it will not ask for my password. Then I upgraded to latest plasma 5.5 from the backports ppa, and now I get asked for those two passwords every time I log in. On journalctl I see this error message: kwallet5(sddm:session): pam_kwallet5: open_session called without kwallet5_key -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
[kwalletmanager] [Bug 345412] Can't access the KWallet in KDE 5, since latest updates in Kubuntu Vivid
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=345412 --- Comment #37 from Juan Luis Baptiste --- I just fixed it by creating another user with the same password as me, and the copying the following files from the test user to mine (and setting ownership of those files to my user): .config/kwalletrc .local/share/kwalletd/kdewallet.* There wasn't anything on .kde/share/apps/kwallet/ on the new user but there were the same two wallet files as in .local/share/kwalletd on my user so I delete them, logged in with my user and I wasn't asked for any of the wallet passwords as before. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
