From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Can't install any of the KDE software from discover (lemmy.zip)

I can't search in discover for any of the KDE software like kmail or KDE partition manager. On the apps.kde.org website when I click the install on Linux button it pulls up discover. But it says "Could not open app stream://org.kde.whatever because it was not found in any available software repositories.".

I have been googling for awhile and can't figure out what repository I need or how to add it. If any one could help I would appreciate it. Thanks.

Just used Arch install. Later on when I launched discover it said it couldn't be used without flatpak. So I installed flatpak and that was it.
