Hello Community,
First of all, my greatest respect for the cool project, that I just want to use now. However, I have a problem: I go to "Discover" and many apps, such as FileZilla, or Putty can not be downloaded. Does anyone know the problem, or can help me? Thank you in advance Kjoto |

You may need to be more specific. What exactly occurs when you try to install these? I just installed and ran both Filezilla and Putty from Discover with no problems.

Thank you for your quick reply.
I go to "Discover" and look in the search box FileZilla, then click on install, whereupon the text, after I entered my password, changed in the button to "Will be installed". Shortly thereafter, however, follows a pop-out with "blocking not possible", whatever that may mean. My user has admin rights and I am over-mediated. Best |

Although Discover works fine for me, other users have reported that it's buggy.
Personally I'd use Synaptic or Muon package managers to install any needed software. Much more stable. |

The pop-up may not be from Discover. It sort of sounds like a firewall message or something of the sort, though I cannot be sure. Can you post a screen shot with this somewhere? I cannot find a reference to the message "blocking not possible" that even comes close to anything relevant to this situation. Also, terminal output might help see where the problem is, and I don't think it is with Discover itself. Try this in Konsole:
Copy and post any error messages you get there
