Description diovannysantiago 2025-05-02 05:16:50 UTC
So for the past 3 days, I've been having this odd issue where I can't update my apps on Discovery, and anytime I open it and it has been checking the updates, it crashes Discovery altogether.

I've also sent bug reports but has claimed that "the generated crash information is not useful" which has been a bit demoralizing as of late. I should also include that I've been using my Steam Deck for the past 2 weeks and have not had this issue until very recently, so I am optimistic that this can hopefully be fixed at some point.

I thank you greatly for any help you can give me for this.

Thank you for the bug report!

However Plasma 5.27.10 is no longer eligible for support or maintenance from KDE; supported versions are 5.27. (LTS), and 6.3 (non-LTS) or newer. Please upgrade to a supported version as soon as your distribution makes it available to you. Plasma is a fast-moving project, and bugs in one version are often fixed in the next one.

If you need support for Plasma 5.27.10, please contact your distribution, who bears the responsibility of providing support for older releases that are no longer supported by KDE.

If you can reproduce the issue after upgrading to a supported version, feel free to re-open this bug report.
