Bug Description

Hello,

Discover seems to check several times a day for updates in the background and then displays its notifier, even if I specified to check only every two days for updates in software-properties-kde (Muon -> Settings -> Configure Software Sources).

It seems the update interval can't be configured directly in Discover, thus it would be logical to me if it would respect the settings configured in software-properties-kde instead.

For me personally it is sometimes a bit annoying that avaiable updates are announced that often.

This also affects plasma-discover-backend-flatpak, if installed.

Kind regards,
Jan

I can still reproduce with Kubuntu 24.04.

In Discover, if I click on the vertical-three-dots-icon in the upper right -> "Configure updates..." and set the notification interval to "weekly" in the Software Updates KCM, I still get update notifications > 1 times per day.
