 It's necessary to have KDE Plasma already installed on your system (plasma-workspace and plasma-desktop) in order to get all the Plasma-specific dependencies for AeroThemePlasma.

 Initially I wanted to make a Vista variant of AeroThemePlasma but [catpswin56](https://gitgud.io/catpswin56) beat me to it, use [VistaThemePlasma](https://gitgud.io/aeroshell/vtp/vistathemeplasma) if you want a Vista theme.
