Bug ID: 517077
Summary: Discover crashes when a discontinued flatpack is
replaced with a different one
Classification: Applications
Product: Discover
Version First 6.6.1
Reported In:
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Flatpak Backend

Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When a flathub package is replaced with a different one, Discover crashes in
the update process.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have a flathub package installed that is replaced by a different one (for me
it was SongRec 0.4.2 -> 0.6.4;
https://flathub.org/en/apps/re.fossplant.songrec)
2. Confirm that you want to replace the package source when updates
OBSERVED RESULT
Discover asks you if you want to replace the package. If you click yes, there
is small timeframe when it seems to update the package, then it crashes.
EXPECTED RESULT
Discover does not crash.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This bug is may related to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=515150
Before the recent update (6.6.1) Discover was not able to replace an obsolete
flathub package with the current instance of it. Now it seems to be, but
crashes at some point in the update process.
As the flatpack is no longer on my system it looks like the removal process was
completed, but the install was not.
I can also no longer find any update to the package the update would have
applied to correctly.
As the orphaned flatpack seems to be removed from the system (and I have no
idea how to get it back) I will more than likely not be able to provide any
backtrace for it.
