Bug 466702

Discover crashes during launch after installing an offline-update was interrupted because of an empty battery.
The system was installing a kernel update, which I then repaired by calling `sudo dpkg --configure -a`.

Qt Version: 5.15.8
Frameworks Version: 5.103.0

The crash might be related to bug 463768 (or not).

It is certainly related to a broken pkcon status:

There are no updates available at this time.

The crash can be reproduced every time.
