https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=420971 Nate Graham changed: What|Removed |Added Resolution|--- |INTENTIONAL Status|REPORTED|RESOLVED --- Comment #6 from Nate Graham --- What I'm getting at is that the kind of user who prefers to use the command line for package management is the kind of user who should use the command-line to manage their firmware updates too. I don't know if there's a CLI tool for managing KNS content, but if there is, said user should just use that. The kind of user who wants a nice GUI experience for updating and installing content for everything *except* for software is a very rare user. I get that perhaps you are one such user. But it is such a rare use case that if you want this done, you'll probably have to submit the code yourself. :) Personally I would be willing to consider such a merge request, but absent that, I don't know if it's worth keeping this bug report open, sorry. :) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=420971 --- Comment #5 from Nate Graham --- What's the use case for intentionally using Discover with no app backends? GUI add-on and firmware updates? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=420971 --- Comment #4 from andreas.sturmlech...@gmail.com --- That's a workaround for an artificial problem, isn't it? And it assumes I want every user on my system to be able to install flatpak images (or any packages, for that matter). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=420971 --- Comment #2 from Nate Graham --- You're talking about Gentoo, right? If so, I know there's no PackageKit backend, but the user could feasibly install the Snap or Flatpak backend, right? And the distro could package Discover with one of them. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=420971 --- Comment #1 from Aleix Pol --- I'm not sure, this is not what Discover is for. Discover is to make the resources to enhance the OS available to the user. Using discover without it is more an artefact of how it's implemented more than an actual feature. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
