| | #REDIRECT [[Plasma/Live_Images]] |
| | |
| ==Kubuntu==
| |
| | |
| '''Packages for Kubuntu Utopic''' Next and Next backports PPAs for Utopic (14.10) are now deprecated.
| |
| | |
| To test upgrade to Vivid, please use the PPA-purge package to remove those PPAs and packages, and then install `kubuntu-desktop` meta-package, and finally:
| |
| <syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
| |
| sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade
| |
| </syntaxhighlight>
| |
| before initiating:
| |
| <syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
| |
| sudo kubuntu-devel-release-upgrade
| |
| </syntaxhighlight>
| |
| to move to [http://www.kubuntu.org/news/kubuntu-vivid-beta-1 Vivid beta].
| |
| [https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UtopicUpgrades/Kubuntu Full instructions to upgrade from 14.10].
| |
| | |
| '''Live Image of Kubuntu Vivid with Packages from Git''' The [http://files.kde.org/snapshots/ Weekly Live Image], updated every Friday with latest source from Git to run a full system from a USB disk. Based on Kubuntu 15.04, Vivid.
| |
| | |
| KDE Frameworks 5 and Plasma 5 is available in the '''Vivid development version''' of Kubuntu, now in [http://www.kubuntu.org/news/kubuntu-vivid-beta-1 beta].
| |
| | |
| ==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.
| |
| | |
| See also: [http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:KDE/Frameworks Gentoo KDE/Frameworks Packaging Status]
| |
| | |
| ==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.
| |
| | |
| ==Arch==
| |
| Plasma 5 workspace is available through the official repositories. For the full installation, simply install [https://www.archlinux.org/groups/x86_64/plasma-next/ plasma-next].<br />
| |
| Frameworks 5 libraries are also in the official repositories under [https://www.archlinux.org/groups/x86_64/kf5/ kf5] and [https://www.archlinux.org/groups/x86_64/kf5-aids/ kf5-aids].<br />
| |
| There are git versions of the above, as well as many other Frameworks 5 applications installable through the [https://aur.archlinux.org/ AUR].
| |
| | |
| See the [https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/KDE KDE] page on the ArchWiki for more information.
| |
| | |
| ==siduction==
| |
| | |
| Right now the default on siduction is KDE SC 4.x, however you can upgrade from your KDE SC 4 installation to KDE Frameworks + Plasma 5 + KDE Applications using the kdenext repository. You can also install KDE's Plasma 5 if you are using a non-KDE flavour of siduction, like "siduction lxde", see below.
| |
| | |
| | |
| '''Make sure you have done the following before upgrading:'''
| |
| * Make sure you have the kdenext/unstable line activated in your sources.list:
| |
| deb http://packages.siduction.org/kdenext unstable main
| |
| * With kdenext/unstable enabled (see the previous point) perform a dist-upgrade and make sure that everything was updated to their latest versions.
| |
| | |
| | |
| '''To upgrade from KDE SC 4 to Frameworks + Plasma 5 + latest KDE Applications:'''
| |
| * In a siduction installation with KDE SC 4, add the kde-frameworks suite of the kdenext repository to your sources.list:
| |
| deb http://packages.siduction.org/kdenext kde-frameworks main
| |
| * Perform a dist-upgrade.
| |
| * If you find issues with the upgrade (such as apt-get/aptitude wanting to remove packages which shouldn't be removed) please use the [http://forum.siduction.org/ siduction forum] to report the issue.
| |
| | |
| | |
| '''To install KDE's Plasma 5 in a non-KDE siduction flavour:'''
| |
| * Add the kde-frameworks suite of the kdenext repository to your sources.list:
| |
| deb http://packages.siduction.org/kdenext kde-frameworks main
| |
| * Install either the package kde-standard or kde-full, whichever you prefer. After that you are suposed to be able to run plasma 5, no matter the login manager you are using.
| |
| | |
| | |
| Last but not least, '''if you also want to switch to sddm''' you just have to install the sddm package; you can also install sddm-kcm to be able to configure sddm in Plasma's systemsettings.
| |
| | |
| ==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".
| |
| | |
| ==Live CD==
