The beloved lightweight distro

Aloha! I used to run krunner inside a hyprland session by invoking krunner via hotkeys or console.

Yesterday I removed plasma-desktop as hyprland does all I need except krunner. I kept the krunner package, but the executable "krunner" is no longer found. Anything I can do except installing the whole plasma-desktop again?

I dont't see plasma-workspace as a dependecy. Output from paru:

This is still alot for one tool, but as far as I can see it will not install the whole plasma desktop again. I am running GNOME, so not sure if GNOME already brings some dependencies not mentioned in my output.

I have the krunner package installed, though I cannot run it in a console anymore as in- "$ krunner" command not found

Ah I see, ragica is right. krunner bin is part of plasma-workspace, kinda misleading that there's an own package.

paru -Fy krunner
