            Bug ID: 422994
           Summary: Please Include Package Names in Package Details
           Product: Discover
           Version: 5.18.5
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: discover
          Assignee: lei...@leinir.dk
          Reporter: k...@startport.com
                CC: aleix...@kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

Discover does not include a software package's name in the details section of
each software it catalogs and I want this to be added for the following
reasons.

    When submitting bug reports and feature requests, it is necessary to know
the package name. When I use Discover to install a piece of software, I expect
to be able to go back to Discover to "discover" that software's package name.
Since it doesn't include this pertinent detail, I'm having to use a number of
command to "discover" a packages name.

    Although I use Discover to discover available software, I always like to
collect that software's package name, so I can add to my "sudo apt install"
list, so that when I set up my computer from scratch, I can use one command to
reinstall all the software packages I've installed previously.

These are my two reason, but I'm sure others have more. The bottom line is, the
package name is a very pertinent piece of information that Discover should
include in the details section of each software it catalogs. Look at what is in
the details section right now:

I'm interesting in two things: (1) Source (which is shown) and (2) Package Name
(not shown).

Please add this.
