Public bug reported:
Recent additional software sources from launchpad (e.g. grub-customizer,
kubuntu backports) drop *.sources files into /etc/apt/sources.list.d/.
It seems that plasma-discover cannot handle these. They do not show up
in the list of configurable sources.
And, even worse than that, it seems that if you have sufficient
*.sources files (I had 5 on a newly installed 23.10 system) the entire
Default source section is absent from the plasma-discover Settings page!
(I got it back by copying over the older, mostly *.list entries and keys
from an older system).
PS: I've had to report the package here as "don't know" as the search
doesn't recognize plasma-discover, and ubuntu-bug doesn't let me choose
"Other problem" as an option (-> You need to specify a package or a PID.
See --help for more information.)
