If you > cannot reproduce the issue there, I'd close it. If its reproducible on a Debian GNU/Linux installation even when it does not happen all of the time, the bug will stay open of course. In that case I kindly ask you to research upstream bug tracker for similar issues. There has been a lot of bug fixes regarding discover since version 5.14.5. So it would help if you could find the bug there if its reported and if there is a fix for it, tell us about it. That way you can help the understaffed Debian Qt/KDE team fix the bug by adding a patch for the 5.14.5 version currently packaged in Debian. -- Martin

P D, thank you for your report. "renders package unusable" is not the right severity if the package is just unusable for you. It is the right severity if it makes the package unusable on most of all Debian installations. This is certainly not the case here. So please do not use a release critical bug severity if it is not appropriate¹. Also please note that Kali Linux is not Debian GNU/Linux. So please retest any issue you have with Kali Linux with a pure Debian GNU/Linux install before reporting it here. So please retest with a pure Debian GNU/Linux installation. If you cannot reproduce the issue there, I'd close it. [1] https://release.debian.org/testing/rc_policy.txt Thanks, -- Martin

Hello, I just tried to install fresh Debian Buster on a VM and tried to reproduce the bug. It appears that Discover works fine on a clean install. As I mentioned before, I am able to reproduce this with AppStream metadata manually disabled in APT configs. So this may be the reason. Please lower the severity. -- Alexander Kernozhitsky
