please can you give me support on which is the correct way to install the official Plasma Discover application (KDE and Plasma resources management GUI) together with the backend package useful to see the official Manjaro/Arch packages without any flatpak, snap or other non-distro stuff? Maybe packagekit or packagekit-qt5 + other things?
A tutorial could be the best thing! Thanks in advance.
UPDATE (2020-04-19, recap from responses below):
the correct way to install from console the Plasma Discover with the common backend part is: sudo pacman -S discover packagekit-qt5
Start typing āaddā to bring up āadd/remove softwareā
Type ādiscoverā in the search to search for discover
CLICK on āinstallā to install discover.
Thereās another way to do this (actually many more ways) but I think opening a terminal might prove too difficultā¦
Ctrl+alt+T to get a terminalā¦
Then āpamac install discoverā
Be aware:
KDE has some GREAT apps. Discover is NOT one of them and it will spam you to deathā¦ you can more comfortably browse the KDE Discover store in a browser and install through pamac (which is the āadd/removeā program).
yeah, but if you install just discover, it shouldnāt be enough.
Your steps are the equivalent of installing discover from console, right? Like sudo pacman -S discover
Just doing this can lead to the installation of plasma discover frontend but not backend, therefore you obtain this error message from discover:
So there must be installed another one or few packages for the backendā¦ thatās what Iām looking for.
Some of you knows which backend package(s) shoud I install?
