Kalarm for Ub distro/s is in the Ub universe repo.  If that repo isn't
enabled, you won't see it.

I try a lot of live distro/s and I like various KDEs, but I've never
tried Feren.  I'm reading an interesting bit in the DW entry for it:

LM last KDE release was in '17.

Now I'm kinda curious what Feren has done w/ their KDE.
