FAQ

I can't install plasmoids in Plasma Workspaces 4.5.1

This is caused by a bug in kdelibs 4.5.1 (bug 251192) which prevents the installer from extracting plasmoid files. The workaround is to extract the file manually and install it from Konsole or another terminal.

  • Download the plasmoid
  • Open the file (*.plasmoid) with Ark and extract it to a directory
  • Open Konsole and navigate to the directory from the previous step
cd /path/to/directory
  • Install the plasmoid with the command (where directory-name is the name of the extracted directory)
plasmapkg -i directory-name
Tip
You can navigate to the directory in Dolphin and press F4 to open an embedded terminal.
