I'm running KDE Plasma on Arch Linux. I just tried dragging the Termoid plasmoid to my desktop but got this error: file:///home/mycomputer/.local/share/plasma/plasmoids/com.koldbyte.kde.termoid/contents/ui/main.qml:28:1: module "QMLTermWidget" is not installed

Even after installing package qmltermwidget I get the error. https://archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/qmltermwidget/

I made it work in Ubuntu, but after installing required package you need to logout and login (restart KDE Plasma). In Ubuntu, required packages are installed with:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:vantuz/cool-retro-term sudo apt update sudo apt install cool-retro-term 

For Arch it is:

sudo pacman -U https://archive.archlinux.org/packages/q/qmltermwidget/qmltermwidget-0.1.0-3-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

there is a maintained and Qml ported fork on GitHub: https://github.com/Swordfish90/qmltermwidget

after I installed it, I now have a new issue of now 'icon' in systray, just a long text string. But, clicking 'text' does launch konsole. i'll work on it when i have a minute, having other issues with dup to Leap 15.5 from 15.4... it's Never easy... always issues.

fyi, i did a cursory check and it's Not installed in /usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/ so, i will have to 'find', again, when i get a minute.

couldn't let it go... it's in /usr/lib64/qt5/qml/QMLTermWidget/

turns out this fork does Not 'launch' a konsole window, but IS a terminal widget/plasmoid and the 'text' i was seeing in the taskbar was the 'terminal prompt'. this is Not useful to me. So i'm going with plasmoid konsole which lists konsole profiles and a click launches one. Sorry I couldn't be more help. Landis.
