[Bug 1793876] [NEW] software-properties-qt/kde does not show in menus

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Rik Mills (rikmills):

Cosmic and Bionic

Desktop file sets: NoDisplay=true resulting in no software sources menu
entry in KDE menu.

This was probably just about ok when Plasma Discover was able to launch
this via a menu item in it's options, but at least for Plasma 5.13 this
is currently broken, and Disover's built-in source selection has further
issues. Plus many users decide not to use Discover at all, and even
uninstall it altogether.

Not withstanding all that, it is just desirable that someone can just
type "software" or "sources" in to the search box in Plasma's main menu
and find the menu item/launcher for this and use software-properties
without having to go a more complicated path.

Solution is simply removing the "NoDisplay=true" line from the .desktop
file

** Affects: software-properties (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
