They implement the KDE Display Environment (Plasma 5). &lfs84_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" 1195f11a0f135da965f7c84a0b535ad6 kdecoration-5.15.0.tar.xz 0d4896be04000503bedcf5c7d51e896a libkscreen-5.15.0.tar.xz 784f3f907050c36265d0c289aa15779f libksysguard-5.15.0.tar.xz 41d68903361098906f7feb05aeef96da breeze-5.15.0.tar.xz 9a0d85a3a6b97e0f0920604e73c8f4f8 breeze-gtk-5.15.0.tar.xz 0ed614d82dff50dd7b1df7165113f600 kscreenlocker-5.15.0.tar.xz 86528bd2bd6f8a66108fc2ceba3cc1af oxygen-5.15.0.tar.xz fdd8a90fc4b917602547adf44553990d kinfocenter-5.15.0.tar.xz 8c0b0aaf98727d52c00bfe3ca5152775 ksysguard-5.15.0.tar.xz 52f86eb52dda1ccd547a8a66893d439e kwin-5.15.0.tar.xz 5424d6b8af2025c44acdaea10615a539 plasma-workspace-5.15.0.tar.xz 8649b958165f1a87f07373be0f97fbf3 bluedevil-5.15.0.tar.xz 2914de589f74b154fe29e3103be34ef6 kde-gtk-config-5.15.0.tar.xz 79d22683db231b7623cf2ebe384994b6 khotkeys-5.15.0.tar.xz 821abe928b627a33ae43ffeace3990e5 kmenuedit-5.15.0.tar.xz 60dae1dde512a5b8c8f54adb48e83ec4 kscreen-5.15.0.tar.xz 2c41b3ae8862a4243169e45348b1cd63 kwallet-pam-5.15.0.tar.xz ef01bd635719a4bf3c6845dbc08e7bc3 kwayland-integration-5.15.0.tar.xz 6d461e4deeeae854e7efdff26c0fbc2e kwrited-5.15.0.tar.xz 7fd8557369f2d3a59e1d84c78a265afc milou-5.15.0.tar.xz d3c9475c2b51cdb1f2efedfb5ab6cf88 plasma-nm-5.15.0.tar.xz 6eab227685df4ccd68ada3a4b633711f plasma-pa-5.15.0.tar.xz 93a379e907d3b03205771e1b5c20ea7d plasma-workspace-wallpapers-5.15.0.tar.xz ed5c4fc72e5d72c8da607bd5fe60693f polkit-kde-agent-1-5.15.0.tar.xz 12d65231a8265ee56d2ef1915aef7894 powerdevil-5.15.0.tar.xz 939ec9bc31bb3c89a73163950bdcedda plasma-desktop-5.15.0.tar.xz d7b299906680e0b564ff24f5c0d70f27 kdeplasma-addons-5.15.0.tar.xz 92751cff053861a46f58d5ca8837cb65 kgamma5-5.15.0.tar.xz f6a267d3e76056a70abc262963f10ed5 ksshaskpass-5.15.0.tar.xz #f910c1c8e687ddade3c161e9b6b9b598 plasma-sdk-5.15.0.tar.xz 19e3f3cb0c8341039f9855e79b9f395c sddm-kcm-5.15.0.tar.xz 9755f8d9e1c84fcf105b464b513bb269 user-manager-5.15.0.tar.xz d7135447c459e8c0bdb5d1fb1d703c01 discover-5.15.0.tar.xz #745357574864bd167cff7b294486e145 breeze-grub-5.15.0.tar.xz #a31d2ba0c628cf40d5102c14930a353c breeze-plymouth-5.15.0.tar.xz 885978ef5cae1c843673be511998fe22 kactivitymanagerd-5.15.0.tar.xz 3fe2706c6c26f26d9aa38fb658763c9f plasma-integration-5.15.0.tar.xz e8d58c1860a29905fcfb0933de163231 plasma-tests-5.15.0.tar.xz 710233d7a0cb25b66caba2d496f706ba plymouth-kcm-5.15.0.tar.xz 78c04d7c16031002fb373a53ba75514a xdg-desktop-portal-kde-5.15.0.tar.xz b1c8325c6a26a2b3f48b4adb6ce0a533 drkonqi-5.15.0.tar.xz 3241eed0c5938ecb07c7b6462179fb9b plasma-vault-5.15.0.tar.xz 90c0b196206104b28def99c770db4ac1 plasma-browser-integration-5.15.0.tar.xz 7033a941eef914415feea7051bf1e42f kde-cli-tools-5.15.0.tar.xz 580f675f1f03e5d2f4aec5cd6eebfe5f systemsettings-5.15.0.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" ck-launch-session dbus-launch --exit-with-session $KF5_PREFIX/bin/startkde EOF startx 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 You may wish to drop consolekit and/or dbus-launch, e.g., just using startkde in ~/.xinitrc. However some capabilities such as mounting or umounting file systems from a file manager will not be possible, or the reboot option may be absent or inoperative, among other problems. 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.
