Bug#1076043: task-kde-desktop: synaptic not installed by default with task-kde-desktop



Hello Roland,


Thanks for looking into this :)

Unfortunately the plasma-discover doesn't show the results for all kind of packages (for example kernels, nala, neofetch etc-etc) so it basically only shows apps with appstream metadata. Unfortunately there is a few, so in my honest opinion Discover can't list/fulfill of installing 100% of the debian repo's software selections.

For me it was ok to install Synaptic manually by hand because I remembered of it. But for non-technical users whom never heard of it might be useful of having it installed out of the box.

I'd say if there's a chance of making it to get installed by default would be a good start. Or if there's a Qt alternative specifically for KDE (like the discontinued Muon, or perhaps Apper?), or if its possible to make Plasma-Discover to also show the result for every single packages from debian repos including kernels and such that would be also a good one.


Thanks in advance

Örs

There is already a software center installed per default: plasma-discover.

The dependency chain is:
task-kde-desktop -> kde-standard -> kde-plasma-desktop ->
plasma-workspace -> plasma-desktop -> plasma-discover.

Can that fullfill this wishlist ticket?

Or @kde-list: would you like to have Synapic (or something else) added?

With kind regards,
Roland Clobus
