They implement the KDE Display Environment (Plasma 5). &lfs90_checked; The instructions below build all of the Plasma 5 packages in one step by using a bash script. Package Information Download (HTTP): Download (FTP): Download MD5 sum: &plasma5-md5sum; Download size: &plasma5-size; Estimated disk space required: &plasma5-buildsize; Estimated build time: &plasma5-time; Plasma 5 Dependencies Required , , , , , , built with , , , , , , , and Recommended , , , , , , , , and Optional , , , appstream-qt, KDevPlatform, libgps, libhybris, libraw1394, mockcpp, packagekit-qt, Qalculate, Qapt, SCIM, and socat (for pam_kwallet) User Notes: The easiest way to get the KDE Plasma5 packages is to use a single wget to fetch them all at once: url=http://download.kde.org/stable/plasma/&plasma5-version;/ wget -r -nH -nd -A '*.xz' -np $url The options used here are: -r recurse through child directories -nH disable generation of host-prefixed directories -nd do not create a hierarchy of directories -A '*.xz' just get the *.xz files -np don't get parent directories The order of building files is important due to internal dependencies. Create the list of files in the proper order as follows: cat > plasma-&plasma5-version;.md5 << "EOF" 57d33092638b1671546f5aa58f62939a kdecoration-5.17.3.tar.xz 131d445c156a425e4fd16a2c6e16e8f2 libkscreen-5.17.3.tar.xz 8e287b24d6697ae7e75824ddaa0c2409 libksysguard-5.17.3.tar.xz fde85cab245f8337767663430c4c48b0 breeze-5.17.3.tar.xz d859abc935e4bae7c8556a7d0823c11c breeze-gtk-5.17.3.tar.xz f7201f181c9fa8080205a571efd1ae1a kscreenlocker-5.17.3.tar.xz ebb0a647b32cfc99db0fd41c418ee007 oxygen-5.17.3.tar.xz 41fb0b9800fee5710c401836b9ce5a04 kinfocenter-5.17.3.tar.xz 251ed74fff7b7bca46c4af973554bd1a ksysguard-5.17.3.tar.xz a32ce47f33af05ddd29d55be9b4fab7c kwin-5.17.3.tar.xz 90a8576c6d95d0e6f74213df041f1df1 plasma-workspace-5.17.3.tar.xz ccd075deae5d603a78479f2fe64a6811 bluedevil-5.17.3.tar.xz 937824ad2d27d49c31a6b302dbf016ba kde-gtk-config-5.17.3.tar.xz 95027338f2c05183f3d4e51b5472dd6e khotkeys-5.17.3.tar.xz 01004da1aad8cd6f927516ba320fcd49 kmenuedit-5.17.3.tar.xz af1d6e15b12d2c6675037ea91650eb48 kscreen-5.17.3.tar.xz 61c93e0714314bc5c9b9313d68eb979c kwallet-pam-5.17.3.tar.xz f884e200e14299031f2948215cecf20d kwayland-integration-5.17.3.tar.xz fd7a1ebb83b4318fa6475782011d4066 kwrited-5.17.3.tar.xz 0a43963ab03fbac7472eb28dd897e627 milou-5.17.3.tar.xz ad793139e22ecdfddb55897f7e1d9c59 plasma-nm-5.17.3.tar.xz d97f0f8d87bf6113cc642b06ca254dfd plasma-pa-5.17.3.tar.xz b7e1a3b3bcc10156eadb66114827f2cb plasma-workspace-wallpapers-5.17.3.tar.xz 9d8f7f5dd2ac879ebdda237208698210 polkit-kde-agent-1-5.17.3.tar.xz 9738628a1dc638abedcceb62f9ec18e4 powerdevil-5.17.3.tar.xz bc459ace55e8700c83d4e41d9460965e plasma-desktop-5.17.3.tar.xz 525de501b3f4f4bd3794229c31db56be kdeplasma-addons-5.17.3.tar.xz c967101a7f7fb0aa9a3326852a39be1f kgamma5-5.17.3.tar.xz 6dde0208679753dfbae2ca32c14a03a7 ksshaskpass-5.17.3.tar.xz #13194ee111514f7806eae32385e343c2 plasma-sdk-5.17.3.tar.xz b8f0915909f52fffa0122d0500c3b577 sddm-kcm-5.17.3.tar.xz 4eade66f63f4cae1a6873543eebdca64 user-manager-5.17.3.tar.xz eae7d894d0093610eadac232a7b2bf22 discover-5.17.3.tar.xz #ab24a2b93148403f27ee2684d8a91bb7 breeze-grub-5.17.3.tar.xz #7d99290a4168b0299b7ccd1ae450adca breeze-plymouth-5.17.3.tar.xz 00b3dbeeb2002c5001cc80b0e23632ba kactivitymanagerd-5.17.3.tar.xz 1268e0848969b20892e6e38d2299a774 plasma-integration-5.17.3.tar.xz 3ec80d38a08d86a417c0cedeab1309d3 plasma-tests-5.17.3.tar.xz 868c68f45337ae8a66a488d2f596cf01 plymouth-kcm-5.17.3.tar.xz 7a5bc2995863afd2fa3629edc3fbdc74 xdg-desktop-portal-kde-5.17.3.tar.xz fb7add39aef8dbb15e4b4cfb6dccae20 drkonqi-5.17.3.tar.xz 03d4d20efeb96a2c2ec5e6b1d5e856e1 plasma-vault-5.17.3.tar.xz 10181267dba716be0b79e238f6e741ef plasma-browser-integration-5.17.3.tar.xz aa7f2afc78ddd303b550631c3fdcc907 kde-cli-tools-5.17.3.tar.xz 459b1c66617e441f5002cad71a5d5b77 systemsettings-5.17.3.tar.xz d85c6f197c7f13557819b91bd20fa99f plasma-thunderbolt-5.17.3.tar.xz EOF The breeze-grub, breeze-plymouth, and plymouth-kcm packages above are all for customized support of Plymouth which is designed to be run within an initial ram disk during boot (see ).

You can start Plasma5 from a TTY, using . To start Plasma 5 using , run the following commands: cat > ~/.xinitrc << "EOF" dbus-launch --exit-with-session $KF5_PREFIX/bin/startkde EOF startx The X session starts on the first unused virtual terminal, normally vt7. You can switch to another vtn simultaneously pressing the keys Ctrl-Alt-Fn (n=1, 2, ...). To switch back to the X session, normally started at vt7, use Ctrl-Alt-F7. The vt where the command startx was executed will display many messages, including X starting messages, applications automatically started with the session, and eventually, some warning and error messages. You may prefer to redirect those messages to a log file, which not only will keep the initial vt uncluttered, but can also be used for debugging purposes. This can be done starting X with: startx &> ~/x-session-errors When shutting down or rebooting, the shutdown messages appear on the vt where X was running. If you wish to see those messages, simultaneously press keys Alt-F7 (assuming that X was running on vt7). If you intend to start Plasma using a display manager such as , there will be two entries for Plasma, one for use with Xorg, and another for Wayland. Modify the Xorg entry with the following command, as the root user, so that you can differentiate between the two: sed '/^Name=/s/Plasma/Plasma on Xorg/' -i /usr/share/xsessions/plasma.desktop Installed Programs Installed Libraries Installed Directories There are too many plasma programs (50 in /opt/kf5/bin) to list separately here. There are too many plasma libraries (39 in /opt/kf5/lib) to list separately here. There are too many plasma directories (over 1000 in /opt/kf5) to list separately here.
