From my #debian-qt-kde logs:
[27.08 01:43] <diederik> plasma-discover is a giant piece of junk and imo 
should be removed from every meta package
[27.08 01:43] <diederik>  /rant
[27.08 01:45] <diederik> for a change I used it's function and did happily 
uninstall plasma-desktop, plasma-workspace, sddm and a number of other 
essential programs
[27.08 01:45] <diederik> without any warning that is. Trying to fix it with 
aptitude seems to be a no go as it's not able to resolve conflicts
[27.08 01:45] <diederik> I have _never_ seen/happen that before

So this happened on 24th of August and then the perl migration wasn't 
happening, thus reopening the bug.
