Weird inconsistency with version strings in Discover under Update tab

Is there a reason for this that I am not getting, or is it just me? Top: New → Old
Bottom: Old → New


Edit: it doesn’t do this all the time, but I have noticed it more than once

I suppose these apps are coming from Flathub? If this is the case, this is a known bug.

Some of these issues can be Flathub packaging issues, but there is also apparently an issue in Discover too, which will be fixed by flatpak: Make sure we are refreshing the appstream metadata (!541) · Merge requests · Plasma / Discover · GitLab.

Unfortunately it missed Plasma 5.27, but I expect it will be be included in 5.27.6. So once you’ve got that fix, if it happens again, it’s probably a Flathub packaging issue.
