This [1] as a starting point, and this snippet from the discussion I think is import: > [...] all of the issues outlined in this bug report are minor annoyances > which do not at all justify the severity of "grave" for this bug report. > [...] it (Discover) is not a package manager. If you want a package > manager, use Apper or Muon In brief, plasma-discover has some glitches and it seems to be good for managing system updates, however it is suggested to use another software for package management (read the bug report for details). Personally I don't like this situation and I would like to use just a single application to manage updates and packages. And despite what I quoted above, plasma-discover can be used to install and remove software but it has less features (and more bugs?) than other package managers, at least the version provided in Stretch. I think that right now an average user could be confused. Which application should be used, Apper, Discover or Muon? [1] https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=858729
