Hello,

I can’t install new KDE themes on Ubuntu Studio 24.10. I always get some error about not being able to install a dependency. Why oh why doesn’t this just work out of the box for the love of Christ?

Any help appreciated.

Matt

The KDE Store website is being janky and/or a bug in the version of something in your Plasma 6.1.x desktop is probably to blame. There are numerous accounts of it here, and it is not a new thing.

I seem to have better luck lately using Discover to install theme items here in Plasma 6.3 compared to the applet in System Settings, but I haven’t installed many global themes recently.

I see. Thank-you for your input. I will try via Discover.

try upgrading to 25.04 which should be available now… that will move you off of plasma 6.1 which had many many problems.

and remember that these themes and anything behind the "Get New… " button are 3rd party developers with widely varying skills and quality controls, so breakage should not be unexpected.

Ok, I will upgrade…And yes, I shouldn’t expect too much…
