Hi,
I've just put a fresh install of 13.1 on my desktop. I'm using an ATI HD6570 graphics card and an i5. On KDE desktop, which I installed with default settings, I can select to "Download New Plasma Widgets". I've found a ton that look great, such as EG-SysMon-QC. I clicked install, and it said it installed, but it isn't available to add as the preinstalled widgets were.
I found the file it downloaded, and tried to install it manually, to which I was informed that the installation failed. (I've tried a few other widgets as well, but this one has 20k downloads).
I then went to terminal, and ran the command plasmapkg -i 114505-EG-SysMon-QC.skz, which yields the output:
I tried renaming the package with a .plasmoid extension to no avail, and spent a good 40 minutes googling.
Does anyone know how to fix this? Thank you for your help!
