            Bug ID: 444239
           Summary: When no apps are found, distinguish in the UI between
                    network failure and misconfiguration
           Product: Discover
           Version: master
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: discover
          Assignee: lei...@leinir.dk
          Reporter: n...@kde.org
                CC: aleix...@kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

It is possible for Discover to end up in a situation where it has no app
backends present, or no valid repos for any app backends. (for example if the
distro ships with only the Flatpak backend, but neglects to add any flatpak
repos).

In such a circumstance discover announces that no apps were found and advocates
checking the network connection, which is a red herring in this case. It should
be intelligent enough to distinguish between "I can't find apps because I can't
connect to the internet" and "I can't find apps because there are no valid app
repos configured"
