            Bug ID: 449108
           Summary: Discover launches way too many instances of some
                    programs
           Product: Discover
           Version: 5.23.5
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: discover
          Assignee: lei...@leinir.dk

The two examples found of this happening

SUMMARY
Discover has a handy "Launch" button which should help a user get right to the
application after install. Krita is a fascinating exception, instead getting
launched around 20× over. KDE Connect is similar but less extreme, getting
launched 5 times. (See the attached screenshot)

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Discover
2. Install Krita or KDE Connect
3. Click the "Launch" option

OBSERVED RESULT
The application gets launched a lot of times

EXPECTED RESULT
The application gets launched once

SOFTWARE
KDE Plasma Version: 5.23.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.90.0
Qt Version: 5.15.3

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
- Testing this with KDE Connect will be much kinder to your computer. I
recommend trying that if you want to check out the bug.
- This bug seems to be caused by Discover launching all desktop files
associated with a program, not just the one you get in your application menu. I
assume this from all the entries of the respective software in
/usr/share/applications/.
