Recently, plasma-wallpapers-dynamic package landed to Fedora, so we can have same dynamic wallpaper ability as WG has it. We also need to work with design team to coordinate this so we can have default dynamic wallpaper in future fedora releases.
Basic Explanation for how to create dynamic wallpaper with "kdynamicwallpaperbuilder"

From the Fedora design team: the screenshot here: https://github.com/subpop/fedora-kde-dynamic-wallpaper/blob/main/preview.png looks fine to me. +1

This is retargeted to F38.

Looks like this will need to be retargeted Neal.

@ngompa @siosm Was there any opposition to adding this for F41? There was a bit of an issue with F40 overlooking this package that caused people using this package to have broken backgrounds during the upgrade process. Adding it as a default might bring more visibility for it.
We need to ask the design team to create the required artifacts: https://github.com/zzag/plasma5-wallpapers-dynamic/blob/main/README.md#how-to-create-a-dynamic-wallpaper
Is there something preventing the plugin itself from being loaded separately from the wallpapers?
Nope, we can ship it now. We just can't do any animated wallpapers offhand because we have none to ship.
I think we should target this for F42 so that we can coordinate with the design team then. I'll move this in from Future Release to F42 unless you think getting it for F41 is still feasible

https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/plasma-wallpapers-dynamic is available in the repos. So this is indeed mostly a question of making the required dynamic wallpaper image available now.
