** Description changed:
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
