SUMMARY
Discover is not showing a prompt dialog when a new package is going to be installed & sometimes a package being removed.
Previously discover used to show the list of packages to be installed, removed and updated when a new package is going to be installed with "proceed" and "cancel" buttons. But now discover is installing, updating packages without confirmation, see the video.
"pkcon" command shows that a new package is going to be installed, but discover doesn't notify about it.

EXPECTED RESULT
Discover asking for confirmation when new packages are going to be installed or being removed.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Comment 1 Nate Graham 2021-03-05 14:53:18 UTC
Discover only notifies about package removal, in case this would break your setup or the underlying package management system has made a mistake and is about to, like, uninstall Plasma or something. Installing new packages presents no such problems, so we don't explicitly tell the user about it.
