Hello.
Whenever I try to install any plasma add-on, through discover or through settings, I get the error message error: SETTINGS invalid number of concurrent streams. I can install other packages just fine. Also, I have reinstalled linux, and the issue persists.
Here is the full error from discover:
org.kde.plasma.libdiscover: last stream isn't over yet Filters(category: Category(0x559fa59cbe00, name = "Plasma Addons"),search: "ant-dark",) ResourcesProxyModel(0x7f600c0b51f0)

kns error "/usr/share/knsrcfiles/lookandfeel.knsrc" "Download of \"Ant-Dark KDE\" failed, error: SETTINGS invalid number of concurrent streams"
Thanks for any help!
EDIT 1: I have tried to install a plasma theme on a live ISO, on mine and a friends computer. In both cases the same error appeared. I have tested the ISO media in both cases.
EDIT 2: I have reinstalled and tested the live ISO, issue still persists. Could it be possible that the issue is server-side?
EDIT 3: I have connected to the internet through my phone hotspot. Still the same error. No idea what to do.

I’ve tried adding max_parallel_downloads=10 but it didn’t work.
When enabled, DNF will save bandwidth by downloading much smaller delta RPM files, rebuilding them to RPM locally. However, this is quite CPU and I/O intensive. Default is True.
When the relative size of delta vs pkg is larger than this, delta is not used. Default value is 75 (Deltas must be at least 25% smaller than the pkg). Use 0 to turn off delta rpm processing. Local repositories (with [file://](file:///) baseurl) have delta rpms turned off by default.
Are you able to use dnf in the terminal and can you update the system with dnf.
sudo dnf upgrade --refresh
I’m pretty sure Discover does not use dnf.
I have installed the dnf group “kde-desktop” two times over the last three days on two different machines, without any issues. Installing add-ons was no problem on either one.
Thanks for the suggestions ivanhoe. I ended up just opening a KDE bug report and can confirm what Joe says. They mentioned those links detailing the issue as well as a “possibly related merge request” as they phrased it:
So hopefully that fixes it! Doesn’t seem to be affecting everyone.
Same issue here. dnf through konsole updates, but if i try to download software through discovery or add ons, it gives me the too many streams error. Hope it gets fixed soon
I`m trying out Fedora36 it wored fine in KDE about 3 weeks ago. Today, I made a fresh install perhabs to use it as my daily driver -plasma addons not working. I also used the ISO which I downloaded 3 weeks ago and tried if it works with no Sys upadtes same error.
FYI
I use Arch too on a Laptop with KDE 5.25 no issue at all works fine.
