Installation on KDE neon with Plasma 6 is broken #19

Closed briskycat closed 3 months ago

briskycat commented 3 months ago

Latest KDE neon with Plasma 6.0.3. After cloning this repository and running kpackagetool6 -i ./ as described in README.md the applet doesn't get added to the list of applets. Running kpackagetool6 --list gives the following output:

Listing KPackageType: KPackage/Generic in /home/andy/.local/share/kpackage/generic/
KPackageStructure of KPluginMetaData(pluginId:"org.kde.windowtitle", fileName: "/home/andy/.local/share/kpackage/generic/org.kde.windowtitle/metadata.json") does not match requested format "KPackage/Generic"

Recently #18 had the same issue. kpackagetool6 is currently broken and places widgets in a folder which plasma does not even checks for widgets. Use plasmapkg2 -i . to install instead. Or you can manually install through steps given in #18.

@dhruv8sh plasmapkg2 is not available in KDE Neon. See https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=485195. It used to be in plasma-framework, but, as Nate mentioned, it is no longer there. It is not in libplasma6/libplasma-dev either. Thus, KDE Neon support is currently non-functional.
