SUMMARY *** NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug symbols. See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports *** After the recent-ish changes to the KDE neon repository, libappstream5 is entirely missing from the repositories, meaning dependencies for Discover can no longer be satisfied currently. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Uninstall libappstream5 if you have it installed 2. Refresh the APT cache 3. Attempt to install libappstream5 OBSERVED RESULT The package is missing EXPECTED RESULT The package installs SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: macOS: Linux/KDE Plasma: KDE neon 5.27.8 (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.8 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.110.0 Qt Version: 5.15.11 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
We did update to a newer appstream for a while but that should now be undone. You don't say what edition of Neon you're using (user?) or what version of plasma-discover you're installing Please paste: apt-cache policy plasma-discover apt-cache policy libappstreamqt2

Ignore the /usr/bin/git - that's just something my current fish config likes to do.
Ok, this is plain weird - after updating APT cache again, plasma-discover no longer has a dependency issue, so... I guess it got RESOLVED since...? Guess I'll just...
yeah sorry about this, we downgraded to an older libappstream which sometimes needs a double apt upgrade to sort out
