| ==Kubuntu==
| |
| | |
| '''Packages for Kubuntu Utopic''' For Utopic (14.10) releases of KDE Frameworks 5 and Plasma 5 are being packaged in the [https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/next/+packages next PPA]. These will replace your Plasma 4 install.

| | |
| <syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
| |
| sudo apt-add-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/next
| |
| sudo apt update
| |
| sudo apt install kubuntu-plasma5-desktop
| |
| sudo apt full-upgrade
| |
| sudo reboot [save any work first, sorry no elegant way to reboot]
| |
| </syntaxhighlight>
| |
| | |
| | |
| For '''daily builds''', install ppa:kubuntu-ci/unstable as above.
| |
| | |
| '''Live Images of Utopic''' [http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu-plasma5/ Kubuntu Plasma 5] images are a development build of what will become the default desktop for Kubuntu next year.
| |
| | |
| '''Live Image of Kubuntu Utopic with Packages from Git''' The [http://files.kde.org/snapshots/unstable-i386-latest.iso.mirrorlist Weekly Live Image], updated every Friday with latest source from Git to run a full system from a USB disk. Based on Kubuntu 14.10.
| |
| | |
| ==openSUSE==
| |
| openSUSE offers snapshots from git master updated frequently as well. Add the KDE:Unstable:Frameworks repository (http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:KDE_repositories#Plasma_Next) and the Qt53 repository (available at the same link) and install the plasma-next-session package to have a session available at the next login.
| |
| | |
| ==Gentoo==
| |
| | |
| Gentoo provides beta as well as live ebuilds inside kde overlay, with dependencies in qt overlay. The following assumes you have a basic understanding of Gentoo Portage and already [http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Layman set up layman] initially:
| |
| <syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
| |
| layman -a kde && layman -a qt
| |
| emerge @kde-next-live --autounmask-write=y
| |
| </syntaxhighlight>
| |
| | |
| | |
| To make the most of it, run
| |
| <syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
| |
| layman -S && smart-live-rebuild
| |
| </syntaxhighlight>
| |
| to get the latest packaging changes for qt and kde and update any ''live'' packages that got new commits since last time.
| |
| | |

| |
| | |
| ==Fedora==
| |
| Now that Plasma 5 has been released, Fedora packaging only tracks the official Plasma 5 releases, not snapshots. See [[Plasma/Packages#Fedora]] for installation instructions.
| |
| | |
| ==From Source==
| |
| Following the instructions here it will automatically build all KDE software that has a KF5 port, most notably the Plasma workspaces, but also development previews of Kate, Konsole and Dolphin.
| |
| | |
| Afterwards follow the guides for "Runtime setup" and then run "kwin --replace" and "plasmashell".
