--- Comment #5 from Nate Graham <n...@kde.org> --- > Okay, It seems to me like you would have to modify the cmake to exclude all > or specific widgets. the Calculator widget lives in the kdeplasma-addons repo, which you can not install. But yeah, if you do so, you'll be missing other things too.

If you search for "Calculator", you'll get a result for: Calculator Calculate simple sums Which is actually going to open the Calculator widget in a window, rather than as a widget. So from the user's perspective, this is a calculator app. This search result is provided by the "Windowed Widgets" KRunner runner. Perhaps the problem here is that the calculator is permitted to appear as a windowed widget in the first place. Because this can indeed trick the user into thinking it's their calculator app. And when there is a real calculator app installed, the user will get two calculator search results. That's kinda weird. Removing `"X-Plasma-StandAloneApp": true` from its JSON file would fix this, and then if you search for "Calculator" when you don't have a calculator app installed, the more prominent search results you see will include entries prompting you to install one. > https://develop.kde.org/docs/extend/plasma/widget/ > I might even try to use this resource to fix some of it myself.
