yeah I’ve had the same issue as well. If you install the Nightly with Wine installed, VeSTige should show up.

What's the name in Apt? or did you have to compile?

install the nightly from the lmms website, run the AppImage (set it to executable and all that), and if you have Wine installed, VeSTige is right there. However, LMMS has a good amount of default instruments and you can make some good stuff with it.

It is important how you install.
First install the WINE that is recommended by pacman for your distro. If non is recommended, then contact Linux-musicians and ask what they recommend for your distro.
After you have installed that WINE and not before, you are ready to install an AppImage of LMMS, and it should imo not be nightly, but 1.3-alpha. At least the MSVS Nightly has issues atm

As others have mentioned above, if you need VST support we recommend either downloading the AppImage directly from lmms.io/download or compiling LMMS. VST support through any given distro's package manager is very hit-and-miss at the moment.

That aside, it looks like LMMS hasn't been available through the KXStudio repo for several years. This is indeed misinformation on the website, and that does need to be fixed.
