Plasma Install not working

[hyperwriter1]

I used archinstall to attempt to install Arch, and I chose KDE Plasma as my DE. When it tried to install Plasma, it failed to do so, and I had to use archinstall again. This time, I chose MATE, and it worked fine.

I believe the issue to be related to Plasma 6 being released, and the script not being updated, but I'm not too sure.

I believe this would be fixed by changing "plasma-wayland-session" in the kde.py script to "plasma-workspace".

Same here. plasma-wayland-session error

I will try that, and report back if it works.

With vim cd /lib/idk... Until you find the file kde.py Then google how to use vim

[SalvatoreNoschese]

There are a lot of directory in /lib/* 🤔

[SalvatoreNoschese]

[hyperwriter1]

Thank you all for the assistance.

The kde.py is found in /usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/archinstall/default_profiles/kde.py

Indeed, found just some minutes ago thanks to pacman -Ql archinstall

Funnily enough, that fails with plasma-workstation cannot be installed. Edit: Ahh it should be plasma-workspace not plasma-workstation. However, I would just delete the line entirely. plasma-meta requires plasma-desktop which requires plasma-workspace

https://github.com/archlinux/archinstall/pull/2386 should fix it.
