Clock application not visible in Discover

I am trying to install the Clock application on KDE plasma. However when I click on the Install on Linux link it gives me the error message

Could not open appstream://org.kde.kclock because it was not found in any available software repositories

How to fix this issue?

when i click on the “install linux” button from the link it takes me to the snap store on my system.

if i go into discover store, i find there is also a flatpak version there as well as the snap.

this might be because i had previously installed both the plasma-discover-backend-snap package and the plasma-discover-backend-flatpak package using synaptic.

i’m running kubuntu 24.04, btw.

update: i installed the flatpak version and the program seems to work (alarms and all), switching to the snap version takes a looooong time to install and seems to hang about the 31% mark.

I like terminal - assuming you’re using Neon or Kubuntu or some other Debian based system you could do this:

sudo nala update

If you don’t have nala, I’d suggest it’s a nice idea:

sudo apt install nala
sudo nala update
sudo nala install kclock

See what that shows.

However, for alarms, I strongly suggest you get kalarm.

I use kalarm instead of cron - run scripts when I like,

  • shows nice yellow bell icon in my systray
  • Message me an hour before bedtime `notify-send “one hour left…”
  • set wakeup time 0559, set volume to 20%, suspend computer an hour after bedtime (allows me to play something quiet/podcast to drift off).
  • wake up computer at 6am, set volume to 50% and me up with a tune slowly increasing in volume…
