Created attachment 122748 [details] Discover search results SUMMARY One example is KCron, which isn't installed by default on Kubuntu. When I look up "cron", Discover returns few results, but KCron doesn't appear on the list. However, when I search up "*cron*" using apt on the terminal, it returns way more results, with KCron being one of them. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open up Discover 2. Search an application OBSERVED RESULT There's a good chance that the one you want is not there, with KCron as an example EXPECTED RESULT SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: macOS: Linux/KDE Plasma: (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: KDE Frameworks Version: Qt Version: ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
My bad. Accidentally submitted right after I attached the image. EXPECTED RESULTS Discover will return more results, with KCron being one of them.

What does `appstreamcli search kcron` say?
$ appstreamcli search kde-config-cron Unable to find component matching kde-config-cron! $ appstreamcli search kcron Unable to find component matching kcron! Should I report this as a bug to KCron?
Yep, it's a bug in KCron, and I'll move it there. Apps need to define AppStream metadata or else they won't show up in Discover.
