I think you’re falling under the issue being discussed in How can we ensure sufficient flexibility for enthusiasts and developers? (#12) · Issues · KDE Linux / KDE Linux · GitLab. Personally I’m in favor of recommending brew (and pre-installing) as our officially blessed userspace CLI package manager. But that’s still an open topic.
As noted, this distro is pre-alpha, in heavy development and with critical components still changing on a regular basis, but also with corresponding ability to have an early impact on its direction. I’d only recommend using it if that description sounds like fun to you.
