SUMMARY

widgets can use the SystemMonitor dataengine to display system usage metrics
hassle-free. this dataengine relies on Ksysguard being installed on the system,
but ksysguard is no longer provided in debian and ubuntu repos.

the code responsible is in KDE/plasma-workspace/
the file is dataengines/systemmonitor/systemmonitor.cpp

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. have a debian 12 or latest ubuntu install with KDE
2. use a widget (such as https://github.com/Prayag2/kde_aestheticclock) that
uses the systemMonitor dataengine

OBSERVED RESULT
the widget will show fallback information, in general placeholders.

EXPECTED RESULT
the widget should show the expect values as specified by the systemmonitor
dataengine.
