Could someone please tell me how I can install plasma-mobile without the full plasma desktop? I installed the rpm using yum but I also got installed the full plasma desktop (which includes the plasma settings rather than the plasma-mobile settings). I installed it from:
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/plasma-mobile
Also, installed the 5.27.10-1 version but I noticed there is also a version 6 for F40 and F41?!
Many thanks
Guy
I’m running it on a Surface GO (10" touchscreen) and so far it seems to work much better than Gnome or Plasma.

Please write a bug report so this reaches the maintainers. The RPM seems to have a packaging issue, not correctly listing dependencies.
As a workaround you could use this DNF argument, if the settings are only listed as a weak dependency
dnf install --setopt=install_weak_deps=false plasma-mobile
But this is not the solution, as such an app should not be listed as weak dependency.
Thanks very much. I’ve raised bug 2267742 – Installing plasma-mobile installs full plasma DE.
So your workaround would be to install F39 without a desktop using Fedora Everything and then run your command?
Thanks

Yeah something like that. But be aware that fedora everything is broken and will lack at least wifi drivers and there is no option to add them through anaconda.
Thanks.
Actually I did a fresh install of Plasma using Fedora Everything and it all worked fine including WIFI so I guess that’s fixed.
