using `kcmshell5 kcm_lookandfeel` , the following console output is produced:

I found this while trying to install new look and feel themes. Using the "Get
New Look and Feel Themes...". Themes were saying installed, but werent
appearing in the choosing menu, and were disappearing from the "installed" tab
when reopening the application. It is an installation error.
The following error message is also produced:
`org.kde.knewstuff.core: Command failed "kpackagetool5 -t Plasma/LookAndFeel -r
/tmp/ELplas.tar.gz"`
For various other themes like "Crown Teal" and others.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. $ kcmshell5 kcm_lookandfeel
2. Try to install new theme using "get new look and feel themes" from kde
settings
OBSERVED RESULT
Theme not installed
EXPECTED RESULT
Theme should be installed
