Bug#1017611: discover: Discover stucks because fwupd is not installed
Package: discover
Version: 2.1.2-10
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
I tried to update my Debian through Discover.
I've enabled the contrib and non-free repository as I require some firmware and non-free drivers (wifi, video cards) for a long time.
Since recent updates of KDE, Discover stucks when updating the package list and complains because fwupd is not installed.
Installing fwupd solves the problem:
apt install fwupd-amd64-signed
... but I guess that Discover should work even if this package is not installed.
Best regards
