** Description changed:

- Driver manager shows only "Collecting information about your system". It
- happens when started from  both"System setting" and console (kcmshell5
- kcm_driver_manager). The bug is similar to
- https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kubuntu-driver-
- manager/+bug/1280310 but "python3 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-
- gnu/libexec/DriverManager_DBus" does not do anything (stops after a few
- seconds). The package python3-dbus.mainloop.qt is installed (4.11.4
- +dfsg-1build3).
+ [Impact]
  
- The bug started to appear after upgrading to kubuntu 16.04: KDE 5.4.3,
- Qt 5.5.1, kernel 4.3.0-2, kubuntu-driver-manager 15.10ubuntu3
+ * libQapt needs apt-xapian-index in order to search for packages, otherwise 
it never returns a result.
+ * As a consequence Driver Manager doesn't find packages and is empty.
+ * Before, apt-xapian-index was installed as a dependence of Muon (libmuon), 
which is not included in the default install anymore.
+ 
+ [Test Case 1]
+ 
+ * Update libqapt and run `kcmshell5 kcm_driver_manager`.
+ * After some time (~1 minute) Driver Manager shows suggested packages.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ 
+ * Low, Driver Manager is useless as of now.
+ * The same fix was applied in Yakkety.
