--- Comment #1 from Harald Sitter <sit...@kde.org> ---
That doesn't really have anything to do with the packagekit backend, but the
appstream data. What happens is that as long as the appstream data is available
(e.g. because of a package that provides the files in /usr/share/swcatalog) we
still know this application exists. We don't know that it doesn't actually have
any available sources until we load all backends though. So, in a way this is
an integration bug. If the thing that provides the appstream data is no longer
able to install the packages it should remove the appstream data.

That is for example what happens with flatpak. We have the appstream data
attached to the remote and if you remove e.g. flathub then it takes its
appstream data with it and we won't enumerate applications that cannot be
installed.
