10 months ago I'm sorry the install instructions did not work for you. To be honest they have not been updated for quite some time and may be outdated.
In order to provide some support could you please provide some more details about your system, the steps you have executed and a detailed error message?

10 months ago I'm running Plasma 5 on Manjaro. I had some dependency missing. But once I fixed this, neither:
yay -Syu plasma5-applets-qalculate);/usr/lib (or lib64 which points to this dir);/usr/lib32...... resulted in qalculate showing up in KRunner. It is nowhere to be found, even in KRunner settings... I don't know if I'm doing this right... Can you help?

10 months ago Well, I have never tested on Manjaro, but that doesn't seem to be your problem.
Maybe there is a misunderstanding, but this is not a KRunner addon, this is a plasma widget. From a usage point of view I have never considered this, I think I would even have to remove some functionality to support this properly. Are you really looking for a KRunner integration of qalculate?

10 months ago And from what I can see here https://userbase.kde.org/Plasma/Krunner#Calculator, the existing Calculator KRunner addon already uses qalculate as a backend. Are you missing some features which are not supported by this addon?

Thanks for your answer. Just as you said, I thought it was a KRunner addon... But now that I know it's a widget, it works fine. Thanks for your time!
I tried my best to follow the installation steps and the different READMEs from the different archives... I tried the "build from source" instructions, using the AUR package (
a failure occured in build), downloading the archives and following the READMEs...If someone can help... Thanks (I love Qalculate! and KRunner and this applet would be amazing on my laptop!)
