From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

The most important thing I take away from this is that I have to install that cat.

Anybody knows what arch package I need so that the install button on the kde pling store works? I want the cat. I've installed ocs-url but it just gives an error saying invalid

u just need kde, as hitting 'get new widgets' in da widgets sidebar uses the same backend, meow

so u just need to search for catwalk in there :3

When I hit 'get new widgets' I get an empty window with no results. When I type something in the search box, nothing comes up. Has been like that for years.

When I hit 'install from file' I can't select the tar.gz which you get from downloading.

So I am either missing some module (which is possible, because I installed a minimal kde plasma, instead of the big meta package) or something else is wrong.
