Unable to install widget

[Lgmrszd]

Updated to Plasma 6.0 recently and trying to install this widget.
Installing directly from "Download New Plasma Widgets" is simply not working without any kind of message.
Attempting to install downloaded file plasmoid-panel-modes-switcher-v0.1.1.plasmoid results in "Installation Failure" error dialog simply saying "Installing the package /home/lgm/Downloads/plasmoid-panel-modes-switcher-v0.1.1.plasmoid failed."

I don't know which command is used to install plasmoids so I don't have any logs

Please try installing from Discover, I also have had problems installing plasmoids from "Download New Plasma Widgets" but Discover worked fine. This could be a bug in Plasma if it happens with other widgets too.

I don't have Discover on my system (NixOS), just tried to get it and it's actually broken unfortunately. I guess for now I'll just wait if plasma gets fixes for that soon.

A bit offtopic question: I've noticed that there is a window action buttons widget on this plugin's demo video. Can you link that widget? I can't find it for Plasma 6.

As a workaround you can download the file install it with plasmapkg2 -i plasmoid-panel-modes-switcher-v0.1.1.plasmoid

That's https://github.com/moodyhunter/applet-window-buttons6

I don't have plasmapkg2 and it appears it is only present for plasma 5, but I am not sure.
But I managed to solve the problem with Discover. It failed to install the widget at first (because turns out it got partially installed and the files were present already) but after clearing those I got it installed. However it is not working, with the following error:
luisbocanegra.panel.modes.switcher/contents/ui/main.qml:9:1: module "org.kde.plasma.private.keyboardindicator" is not installed

[luisbocanegra]

org.kde.plasma.private.keyboardindicator

That's a leftover from previous experiments and was removed in version 0.1.1. It seems discover installed the old version, you could remove that line but you better install the latest where I fixed a crash. To get around all this you can just clone and replace the files from package/ into ~/.local/share/plasma/plasmoids/luisbocanegra.panel.modes.switcher/ and it should work fine.

Yup, that got it working. Thanks!
Not closing this for now as I was able to install other widgets through "Download New Plasma Widgets" just fine, so maybe this is a packaging issue

[luisbocanegra]

I have now opened a bug report about this problem on KDE Bugzilla https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=482349 hopefully they are able to figure out why this is happening and can fix this soon. Fixed for Frameworks 6.1

Let's keep this issue open until that version is released
