You may try my COPR of wallpaper-engine-kde-plugin and follow its installation instructions.

I tried this and it installed, but when I select Wallpaper Engine for Kde I get a warning: Please make sure qtwebsockets (qml module) installed and open this again.

Can you try to install qt6-qtwebsockets with dnf??

[REOspeedweed]

I had the same issue. Tried to install qt6-websockets and terminal said it was already there. It also won't load my library

I know what's happen. Though it's on QT6 branch, wallpaper-engine-kde-plugin seems still using qt5-qtwebsockets instead of qt6-qtwebsockets to detect whether qtwebsockets exists or not. Running sudo dnf install qt5-qtwebsockets python3-websockets should fix the issue.

@catsout @fxzjshm

The package on my COPR will update requires soon.

Try running sudo dnf install qt5-qtwebsockets python3-websockets to see if it can work for you. See more details above.

I had both packages already installed and there is no change. This is a bit strange, as I do not remember reinstalling qt5-qtwebsockets.

Strangely, I haven't met this issues on my system and everything works well. It seems your system lacks something. 🤔

I was having this exact same issue with the COPR, solved it by installing qt5-qtwebsockets-devel and qt6-qtwebsockets-devel, don't know which one actually solved it, I installed both just in case

Okay that indeed seemed to install the correct module. Sadly now it says that python3-websockets is not found ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'websockets'

I tried to install it with dnf and also directly with pip but the error persists.

I also just noticed an error on the About Tab: warning: The lib version is inconsistent with the plugin version

Strangely, I don't know why does it need devel packages. I should only be used while building RPM file.
