The problem is that there is no such option there, which is why I'm asking.
It seems that I need to install
kdeplasma-addons
. I will need to look into how people usually usepacman
, as it keeps asking me to login asroot
.To use pacman you must have root permissions. You can do this by using
sudo
.If your installation is correct, you must just use
sudo pacman -S kdeplasma-addons
sudo
is a command that escalates your user's privileges to haveroot
powerpacman -S
installs a packageI was wondering what I was doing wrong with
sudo
.And did u find out?
Yeah, I was trying to do stuff like
sudo install
. I was not aware that it is used in combination with other commands like that.
