Public bug reported:
For the last releases (22.04, 22.10) QApt Deb Installer provides worse user
experience than both KDE Discover and GDebi
1. It can't install some packages. Recent example is an official deb package
"skypeforlinux". QApt shows "Error: Cannot satisfy dependency". However
Discover, GDebi and apt for CLI installs it
2. It's slow and doesn't inform user much
In the case of "skypeforlinux":
a. for ~3 seconds user observe animation with QApt icon on the panel, then it
disappears
b. Without any indication on the panel user waits for ~5 seconds until QApt
window appear
c. "Error: Cannot satisfy dependency" doesn't inform user what's wrong
