Public bug reported:

may be a duplicate of #1671909

Fresh install of kubuntu, the notification area pops up an icon saying
"Updates Available", when I click it, it says 4 updates available, I
select update, Plasma-Discover opens, loads for a few moments, then says
"The software on this computer is up to date."

If I leave it on this screen for about a minute, suddenly the 4 updates
appear.

The updates that finally appear all show as having a size of 0 bytes,
with a total for the 4 selected updates also 0 B.

When I press update, a bar at the top shows up saying Updating, which
jumps to about 20% progress, then down to 10% progress, then slowly
works it way up to 30% progress, then jumps back to 0%, then the
individual progress bars for each update complete, then restart from 0%,
then complete again, then start from 0% again, then get to about 20% and
the whole thing hangs for a minute, then the screen jumps back to "The
software on this computer is up to date." and the icon in the
notification area disappears (the updates were installed)

As an updater, I guess it's working, but the user interface/experience
has a large number of glaring issues.

** Affects: plasma-discover (Ubuntu)
