On Groovy, Hirsute, no error message window pops-up; the 'Launch' button
is not-responsive. On Focal an error message is shown. Snap attached.

Title:
  "Software Sources" fails to launch from Discover when tried to launch
  from applications list (kf.kio.gui: "Could not find the program 'lxqt-
  sudo'")

Status in software-properties package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Release: Kubuntu Groovy (also affects focal, hirsute)
  SW, version: software-properties-qt, 0.99.3.1 (for groovy but also affects 
version on focal)

  How to reproduce:
  1) Launch Discover.
  2) Search for (or scroll to) 'software sources', select the 'Software 
Sources' from the search result.
  3) Click on 'Launch'.

  Expected:
  The application launches, possibly asking for admin password.

  Actual:
  Does not launch (on groovy). On focal, launches with error (Snapshot 
attached). However, if we try to access software sources from 'Settings', it 
launches properly.

  When launched from terminal, it was seen that discover was trying to use 
`lxqt-sudo` and failing since it was not installed. Error message as below.
  `kf.kio.gui: "Could not find the program 'lxqt-sudo'"`

  Whereas when we access 'Software Sources' from 'Settings', it is using 
`kdesu`. Message as below.
  `org.kde.kdesu: Daemon not safe (not sgid), not using it.`. Inspite of 
'Daemon not safe...' error, the software sources launches and able to make 
changes.
