--- Comment #3 from Nate Graham <n...@kde.org> ---
Yeah, Discover uses PackageKit, which is an abstraction layer above all the
distro-specific packaging tools. PackageKit itself included many plugins
allowing interaction with distro-specific packaging tools; you can see them
here: https://github.com/hughsie/PackageKit/tree/master/backends

The error message that Rai saw means that the package for the Discover
PackageKit backend was not installed, which would make sense if that package is
not installed by default or does not even exist because there is no PackageKit
plugin that works with FreeBSD's native packaging tools.

If no such plugin exists, someone would first need to write one and submit it
to https://github.com/hughsie/PackageKit. This would then allow PackageKit to
work on FreeBSD, which would allow the Discover PackageKit backend to be
packaged and installed by default with Discover.
