FYI, this is now reported on both Arch and Neon, with several dozen
duplicates in this bug report: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=411286
Looks like a very serious regression to me...

Subject: Plasma 5.17 beta Discover system updates regression
To: KDE Mailing List <kde@mail.kde.org>
Since upgrading to plasma 5.16.90 from the Arch kde-unstable repo, Discover
is
checking for system updates by default and I cannot find where to disable
this
behaviour. I've checked in Autostart and Background Services in System
Settings -> Startup and Shutdown and in system tray settings.
I had system updates disabled in 5.16.5 by clearing the checkbox for
updates
in System Tray Settings -> General -> Extra Items but that checkbox is no
longer there.
I had packagekit installed from previous trials so uninstalled it. Although
I
am no longer actively notified of system updates by Discover, 'Updates'
still
appears on the system tray Status and Notifications panel that appears when
clicking on the system tray up-arrow and the tool tip shows System up to
date,
even when it is not.
The update notification comes from DiscoverNotifier but I haven't been able
to
see where such a service is activated, including in systemd.
Discover system updates is unusable in an Arch system. It suppresses pacman
feedback and pollutes the pacman.log with countless [PACKAGEKIT]
synchronizing
package lists messages.
Is there a way to truly disable this service?
Regards,
Richard
