Strange desktop behavior

Hi.  Using the KDE desktop in Q4OS.  I really love it.  The system is fully updated.

I tried to add a weather widget to the desktop.  I got an error that reads: "Error loading QML file: file:///home/jeff/.local/share/plasma/plasmoids/com.github.zren.dailyforecast/contents/ui/main.qml:7:1: module "org.kde.plasma.private.weather" is not installed
"

The message is in a display box on the screen.  Nothing I do will make the box go away.  I've tried to right click, but no option to make the box go away.  I've rebooted.  No luck.  Not a fatal error, but one that's really annoying.  Does anyone lhave an idea of how to get past this?  Thanks.

Re: Strange desktop behavior

I don't use KDE Plasma, @crosscourt may help you. Looks like, you have to install a package, which runs the weather widget.

Before asking for help please read this topic: https://www.q4os.org/forum/viewtopic.php?id=3502   If you have problems with WiFi network, try to install the Network Manager using Q4OS Software Centre.

Re: Strange desktop behavior

Ive not used the weather widgets much but indeed it appears a package is needed that wasnt provided by the distro or installed to make the weather widget work.
Hopefully the devs can help you with this one.

Thanks.  Not a big deal, just a minor nit.
