Comment 4 for bug 1570551

Jup, it's pretty late... I should have noticed this much earlier, sorry.
The decision if it's worth the risk or not is not mine though, so better file a request that gets rejected than filing no request at all ;-)

FWIW, I created a plasma-discover package in my Testing PPA: https://launchpad.net/~ximion/+archive/ubuntu/tests/+packages?field.series_filter=xenial

While the upgrade works, the application crashes in "qapt-backend.so" now, for some reason :-/
I'll try to find out why, but if this persists, thumbs down on this FFE.
