One addition: If Kirigami is missing on the system, Discover will
build but simply crash on startup - so, we should make the application
handle this case better (= not crash) or simply depend on Kirigami at
build-time, so people don't forget to make it available.
Especially for distributors this is kind of important, so they get the
dependencies set correctly.
