I want to add some plugins to a program (Krita), but I need to know where the software store placed it when I download it.

Hi, Zorin is a fork of Ubuntu 24.04:

" To install plugins for Krita on Ubuntu 24.04, follow these steps:

Import Python Plugin from File
The easiest method is through Krita’s built-in plugin manager:

  • Open Krita.
  • Go to Tools → Scripts → Import Python Plugin from File…
  • Navigate to the downloaded ZIP file (e.g., from GitHub or Krita Artists), select it, and confirm.
  • When prompted, enable the plugin and restart Krita.

Install from Web (GitHub)
If the plugin is hosted on GitHub:

  • Go to Tools → Scripts → Import Python Plugin from Web…
  • Paste the HTTPS URL of the plugin’s ZIP file (e.g., from the "Code" → "Download ZIP" option on GitHub).
  • Confirm and restart Krita.

Manual Installation (Advanced)
For custom or unzipped plugins:

  • Extract the plugin ZIP to a folder with a unique name.
  • Inside, ensure there is a pluginname.desktop file and a folder named pluginname .
  • Place the entire structure into the pykrita folder:
    ~/.local/share/krita/pykrita/
  • Restart Krita.

:light_bulb: Note : Always verify plugin sources for security. Some plugins (like AI tools) may require additional backend installations. Use the AppImage or Flatpak versions of Krita if you encounter issues with Snap or system package installations.

Thank you so much.

Did you install it as a Flatpak?

The Software Store defaults to Flatpak, despite APT being the standard Packaging system on Debian based dsitros.
Flatpaks are containerized with their mount points stored in /var in root.
