I am not a quite good with these things but I have tried to fix this with some help from AI but it doesn’t help. I already saw an older post about this but it was already dead and I have better luck reaching out for support by trying the methods seen in the older post in a new post.
The problem is that the first time I open the Discover app, it works fine. But after closing it and trying to reopen it, it refuses to open.
To open it:
pkill -9 -f plasma-discover
After the command it works again but the same thing will be seen again after closing that.
Here are my logs from terminal:
kela@kotiboksi:~$ plasma-discover
org.kde.plasma.libdiscover: OdrsReviewsBackend: Fetch ratings: false

ortal.Error.Failed”, “Could not register app ID: Connection already associated wit
h an application ID”)
kf.kio.core: Connection::send() called with connection not inited
kf.kio.core: An error occurred during write. The worker terminates now.
In the older post someone mentioned changing the backends and seeing what is the failing one,
plasma-discover --listbackends
Available backends:
* fwupd-backend
* flatpak-backend
* kns-backend
* packagekit-backend
But changing the backend like in this command:
plasma-discover --backends packagekit-backend,kns-backend
It doesn’t resolve my issue even when trying every combination from 1 backend to all 4, it remains in the backround spamming this one line in the terminal:
kf.kio.core: Connection::send() called with connection not inited
kf.kio.core: An error occurred during write. The worker terminates now.
I really want to solve this issue.
This started happening after installing an RPM file with Discover and then removing it, it only says transaction failure and nothing else. Now it gives me transaction failure on every single RPM app I remove
