[Installation] Can no longer install the theme: Kubuntu 20.04.3

Lightly installed or not, it doesn't make any difference.

There's no entry in Windows decoration for Aritim Light, there's only Lightly.

Thanks for the feedback!

I just tried on my Manjaro VM and this happened: Downloaded Aritim-Light Global Theme, installed and applied.

• Everything was installed and only the window decorations got applied (so in my case they got installed)
• I had to apply the plasma theme manually because it didn't got applied automatically

I Downloaded Aritim-Dark and everything worked flawlessy. After that I applied the Light version once again and this time everything got applied correctly in a single shot.

So it is really hard to debug (in general, this is not the first time I get "randomic" issues like this one). I suggest you maybe trying multiple times downloading and reinstalling the package or applying the various components manually (the lack of Window Decorations in your case may be a cache problem server-side, once again this happened many times sadly and does not depend on me).

In any case thank you for your feedback, I'll try to refine the entire package this weekend as soon as I have some spare time available.

Have a nice day!

PS: The errors you got from kapackagetool5 do not prevent the package installation and I'm aware of their presence, I'll try to see how to avoid them
