This may be a case of developers simply not documenting how to use their product, but it's hard to say. The KiGo installation using any of snap command line install, Ubuntu App Center or apt-get produces a front end without a functional back end. The front end shows a green light signifying a functioning back end even if nothing is typed for a back end. Installing gnugo and supplying the path of /usr/bin/gnugo has no effect. The configuration page shows a green button (which is meaningless) and the application indicates in red text that there is no back end. The fact that the developers can get this working doesn't mean it's ready for public use. If this only works on KDE systems, it should not be available to install on Gnome systems. *** If you're not sure this is actually a bug, instead post about it at https://discuss.kde.org If you're reporting a crash, attach a backtrace with debug symbols; see https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports Please remove this comment after reading and before submitting - thanks! *** SUMMARY STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. 2. 3. OBSERVED RESULT EXPECTED RESULT SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: macOS: (available in the Info Center app, or by running `kinfo` in a terminal window) Linux/KDE Plasma: KDE Plasma Version: KDE Frameworks Version: Qt Version: ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The actual version was not added to this bug system: also a bug. The version is 0.6.25043 OS: Ubuntu 25.04 fully updated
We do not have any control over Ubuntu's packages. I would say you should report a bug against them not against us. Meanwhile you can install the flatpak version that seems to work well. https://flathub.org/apps/org.kde.kigo Also CC'ing Scarlett in case I am wrong and we do have control over Ubuntu packages, the snap situation is a bit unclear to me.
