Hi there, i'm having an error while tying to instal:

sudo kpackagetool5 -i Aritim-Dark-KDE-master.zip couldn't find knsrc file for "wallpaper.knsrc" Empty filename passed to function Erro: A instalação de /home/christoph3/Transferências/Aritim-Dark-KDE-master.zip foi mal-sucedida: Não foi possível instalar a dependência: 'kns://wallpaper.knsrc/api.kde-look.org/1291306'

Hi, thanks for reporting this issue. That's quite strange: I tried to reproduce the issue on a VM using KDE Neon and this is the log I got:

sudo kpackagetool5 -i Aritim-Dark-KDE-master.zip
installing...
org.kde.knewstuff.core: Could not determine type of archive file ' "/tmp/vBysZe-Aritim-Dark-Wallpaper-1920x1080.jpg" '

Successfully installed /home/neon/Downloads/Aritim-Dark-KDE-master.zip

Despite the displayed errors, I still obtain a successful installation: the theme is correctly installed such as as the color palette and the wallpaper (which is not set automatically, I still have to figure this out...)

I don't know actually why you are having this problem, I'll wait to have new feedback.

The best and user-friendly way to install a KDE theme is by going on Settings --> "Workspace theme --> Look and feel --> Get new Look and Feel Themes* and finally select the theme you are looking for (downloaded and installed automatically from the KDE Store).

Hi there, tried to install using terminal way and graphical way without success. When I tried to install via " get new themes for plasma" it install but does not show in the available installed themes. Via terminal it gives the error reported in kde neon and also in a fresh arch+plasma install. Best regards

So I tried to look for it on the Internet. What I found so far:

As suggested by the first link, this could be probably linked to a dependency you don't have on both your systems (although it seems strange since my clean live-usb of KDE Neon works so far but not yours).

Finally, since this seems really a though problem to debug, try to modify the metadata.desktop file contained into the theme's zipped folder. This file contains all the dependencies that are downloaded automatically during installation. It's just a matter of deleting this string and relaunch the installation (you can repeat this with all the dependencies that may cause problems): Screenshot_20190523_171409

Finally, if the installation completes successfully, you can download manually the wallpaper if you want: https://store.kde.org/p/1291306

Hi there, tried it again in kde neon fresh install and also on my main arch+plasma no luck, if i install via graphic it does not show aritim theme on available themes.

That's really strange. I found this thread on the opendesktop community:

This is probably the problem you are encountering. Try to reproduce the commands that you can find on the reddit thread (the second link) (kcmshell5 kcm_lookandfeel) and follow the instructions on the same thread.

This will probably explain why both Kde Neon and Arch are affected but not my Manjaro I'm currently writing from: both the distros come with the most updated packages so these kind of problem have a higher probability to happen. Finally, my KDE Neon ISO that I used on my VM is dated 2018 so it has outdated packages, that's why I didn't face the problem.

Let me know, we may have found a solution!

No feedback received so far. Assuming the problem was solved and closing the issue.
