I'm glad to hear the KDE store plugin is at least installing, means it was updated at some point. The dependencies are referenced mainly if you are compiling from source. Whether you are installing dependencies while installing from the KDE store shouldn't entirely matter, as they are installed and referenced regardless (Read the README, I'm wrong here. Still best to compile from source). This was when i installed during KDE 5, and again, that was a bit ago.
What I do now are two things:
Dependencies are necessary for compiling from source, and you have them actively installed. I would recommend following the steps necessary to compile from source from the README (using the main
branch since they've updated branching). Make sure to uninstall the KDE store plugin first.
In my experience, some of the compile commands may require sudo or permission changes, but I don't want to give you wrong information. Compile from source and tell me how it goes.
I'm having the exact same issue on the exact same distro. Except, I installed it from source. I installed using 'sudo su' which got the plugin lib to check off. I'm thinking it's a linking issue. I'm trying to find where it says to look for qtwebsockets and python3-websockets in the make files.
I got this to work. First things first, my system info:
Kde: 6.1.5 on X11 Qt:. 6.7.2 OS: Ubuntu 22.04 LTS "KDE Neon" Installation Source: KDE Store & Source Wallpaper Engine version: 2.5.28
I ran the dependency install as first step:
sudo apt install build-essential libvulkan-dev plasma-workspace-dev gstreamer1.0-libav \
liblz4-dev libmpv-dev python3-websockets qtbase5-private-dev \
libqt5x11extras5-dev \
qml-module-qtwebchannel qml-module-qtwebsockets cmake
Here's where I deviated (& shoutout to slynobody at https://github.com/slynobody/SteamOS-wallpaper-engine-kde-plugin)
sudo apt install installed gstreamer1.0-libav qml-module-qtwebchannel qml-module-qtwebsockets libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0-0 gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad gir1.2-gst-plugins-bad-1.0 python3-websockets **libmpv2** libqt6websockets6 qml6-module-qtwebsockets
I got an error for not having libmpv2 - but I ignored it. Also, I didn't have clang installed, so I installed that before doing any of this.
Next, I navigated to .local/share/ and ran:
# Download source
git clone https://github.com/catsout/wallpaper-engine-kde-plugin.git
cd wallpaper-engine-kde-plugin
# Download submodule
git submodule update --init --force --recursive
At this point, I switched over to super user because sudo wasn't allowing the two files listed below to be placed in the path. - This is what's preventing the plugin library from being checked off.
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt6/qml/com/github/catsout/wallpaperEngineKde/libWallpaperEngineKde.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt6/qml/com/github/catsout/wallpaperEngineKde/qmldir
sudo su
# Configure, build and install
# 'USE_PLASMAPKG=ON': using kpackagetool tool to install plugin
cmake -B build -S . -GNinja -DUSE_PLASMAPKG=ON
cmake --build build
cmake --install build
# Install package (ignore if USE_PLASMAPKG=OFF for system-wide installation)
cmake --build build --target install_pkg
I then ran the following code to 'uninstall': kpackagetool6 -t Plasma/Wallpaper -r com.github.catsout.wallpaperEngineKde
Lastly, I reinstalled it from the themes KDE Store and when it booted up, all dependencies were showing checked off. I'm fairly certain this was like, the most ass-backward way to do this. I'm just telling you my steps.
So I tried these steps and didn't get any success. I still have the same error as OP.

So, to clarify, you tried installing the additional packages, and still nothing?
libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0-0 gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad gir1.2-gst-plugins-bad-1.0 libqt6websockets6 qml6-module-qtwebsockets

Checked and I have everything except gir1.2

I'm not seeing qml6-module-qtwebsockets
OK I fixed it, so qml6-module-qtwebsockets
doesn't exist in the normal repos. I installed qt6-websockets-imports
and it loaded
Yay! Glad to see you got it fixed, friend.

for openSUSE Tumbleweed, use qt6-websockets-imports from openSUSE:repo-oss
I've installed the plugin from KDE Store while also installing the dependencies mentioned in the GitHub page. However, after selecting the plugin in the wallpaper configuration. It mentions that the qtwebsockets module wasn't present, after looking at the "About" section, I noticed that the python websockets plugin wasn't present as well.
I've tried reinstalling both modules, with no success. I want to know if someone else had this issue and had resolved it, and know possible fixes.
