I installed Krita's AppImage and I was able to reproduce this issue with the same error message that the reporter got. I also installed Krita from Fedora's repositories and instead got a HTTP 404 error, however other plugins from GitHub appear to import correctly.
I don't use Krita nor AppImages, however I suspect that the SSL library may be the cause of the issue.

I think that the first problem some arch build issue or library issue is.

Looks like there are no releases for this plugin? And if that's the case, there's nothing to download, so this error message is completely correct.
