Is it possible that it's coming from flatpak? "flatpak update"
I ran "flatpak update" and it did update and install two flatpak packages. As a precaution, I also ran "snap refresh" but those were up to date. This resolved the issue and there were no updates listed. It seems that plasma-discover didn't update the flatpaks when it updated the regular deb packages, unless I missed a setting. Should setting either snap or flatpak as default pull in those packages as well?
No, don't worry, this a different bug. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 395923 ***
