kde linux discover missing backend
SUMMARY
When you remove the package plasma-discover-rpm-ostree on Fedora Kinoite or use
an atomic version of Fedora like Bazzite or just use KDE Linux
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. use a system that does not ship a backend for distro packages, only a
backend of flatpak is present (KDE Linux, Bazzite)
2. search for kmail in kickoff (any application not available on flathub but in
distro repos)
3. click on kmail search result
OBSERVED RESULT
discover opens with the following error message
Could not open appstream://org.kde.kmail2.desktop because it
was not found in any available software repositories.
EXPECTED RESULT
Don't show search results for stuff you can't install
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

was not found in any available software repositories.
