Bug ID: 388154
Summary: Backend switcher UI doesn't appear for apps also
available in an Ubuntu PPA
Product: Discover
Version: 5.11.4
Platform: Ubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: discover
Assignee: aleix...@kde.org
Reporter: pointedst...@zoho.com
Target Milestone: ---
I use Discover on Kubuntu 17.10 with the following PPAs installed:
- Kubuntu backports (provides newer versions of KDE software)
- VLC nightly builds (provides a newer version of VLC)
These PPAs provide versions of their software that have AppStream IDs identical
to the versions provided by the regular Kubuntu 17.10 repos.
I know that Discover has a backend switcher UI:

However, Discover doesn't show the backend switcher on the Application Pages of
any apps that are available from both a PPA and the distro packaging. Instead,
the PPA version is always shown and the distro-provided version is unavailable
until you manually disable the PPA.
