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" 65ad6be44bae48a8b95282f38a172bd5 kdecoration-5.18.0.tar.xz 352ee02e39de0bb991fde185d910dc2b libkscreen-5.18.0.tar.xz 6cd8353bb8ee8017eb9cec1d9784354e libksysguard-5.18.0.tar.xz 4bfa3626154af80e53fa6df31088fa5d breeze-5.18.0.tar.xz 6f4e972f00edbcc3078646066546fd1d breeze-gtk-5.18.0.tar.xz 44ced6d2ea583ecdf39eb12121f797ea kscreenlocker-5.18.0.tar.xz 8ad9334b3b7cdc74a457a43fe8e3d763 oxygen-5.18.0.tar.xz 49a00ae8e8516ee9c63b1361e7e8b35a kinfocenter-5.18.0.tar.xz 8877136028cbf810156ace05e23a0606 ksysguard-5.18.0.tar.xz 6c9e520619c2dd1cfb58b18c39a35a2a kwin-5.18.0.tar.xz 37a8c7b47c30a6fbc96812e07e520a17 plasma-workspace-5.18.0.tar.xz 2df5eab9f574037d8ddd44595ae9740b bluedevil-5.18.0.tar.xz 0bdcc24e5892f1ef18dacec5a7a02335 kde-gtk-config-5.18.0.tar.xz c9aa2a00ef44caf72fc35bac425bfb11 khotkeys-5.18.0.tar.xz bf513fd5cb621fe6188ae539af1357a0 kmenuedit-5.18.0.tar.xz a24eb028b1942bbb6be277830c883ca4 kscreen-5.18.0.tar.xz ff159637ce8450930120560657dc7aa4 kwallet-pam-5.18.0.tar.xz 76828427796d566b04947c01219fb538 kwayland-integration-5.18.0.tar.xz 26a01a5e99685854aa6cee4c1b5aa3ac kwrited-5.18.0.tar.xz 75d8aef7a58acabd6cbf8e58622264e2 milou-5.18.0.tar.xz 3702c99b031856ee14facf953ab96a12 plasma-nm-5.18.0.tar.xz af558e3b675c1dbde752b8f27d107f34 plasma-pa-5.18.0.tar.xz dbbf224c5f626d6e93aa049f05c79824 plasma-workspace-wallpapers-5.18.0.tar.xz 64d690559f2ae9ad9724709d880e500b polkit-kde-agent-1-5.18.0.tar.xz 2a295e35d8344c8c486d35ce31daed2e powerdevil-5.18.0.tar.xz f7763083a9ae5562a88725ede46019d9 plasma-desktop-5.18.0.tar.xz fbd61128d753723f94f3e3377f1c6dbf kdeplasma-addons-5.18.0.tar.xz 04ff88998c5a0732b9a1bb76320155ca kgamma5-5.18.0.tar.xz 54420fb7d114b527c820018db615db80 ksshaskpass-5.18.0.tar.xz #246b73de780bf92444ac4d6f69f50d2f plasma-sdk-5.18.0.tar.xz 3ae3cbec00e5f354e680ae88683e92b4 sddm-kcm-5.18.0.tar.xz 01663f7d1817c976119189ccbd8fc139 user-manager-5.18.0.tar.xz 434034a0af6aa4456adef6002f9964d7 discover-5.18.0.tar.xz #0a5db8616c37961c34b4107672f8ca1f breeze-grub-5.18.0.tar.xz #2483b77974bfcd0b311d10d947486b8d breeze-plymouth-5.18.0.tar.xz 19eeb2603042ed8f13861728a42240c3 kactivitymanagerd-5.18.0.tar.xz 75ba0f7a3eb652b8aa52cdb2bb6cf449 plasma-integration-5.18.0.tar.xz 71b682f963f4c219a10c92706f7e0de0 plasma-tests-5.18.0.tar.xz #2d10a553fa7d7ab7df3ad14ce41d4f7e plymouth-kcm-5.18.0.tar.xz 6801ac281d11cd0b06132b8f0044b913 xdg-desktop-portal-kde-5.18.0.tar.xz 69c20946b2cfaa5d94443bf2daa5cefc drkonqi-5.18.0.tar.xz 404bb032a9870e2182ed28bac4b62f30 plasma-vault-5.18.0.tar.xz 916bb56baee7ce272dc0076eef96c116 plasma-browser-integration-5.18.0.tar.xz 6d28a752327246b0085192d784a30164 kde-cli-tools-5.18.0.tar.xz b89a6fcfd152fcff0c737b7994b93503 systemsettings-5.18.0.tar.xz 9a4d8193ff7a01e0fea74de69897f63a plasma-thunderbolt-5.18.0.tar.xz #7f67365c7aa0e385abdc3b8e5a4ed290 plasma-nano-5.18.0.tar.xz #98a08ead926817ef803e0f0037ed7336 plasma-phone-components-5.18.0.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 ). The plasma-sdk package is optional and used for software development. The plasma-nano package is used for embedded systems and plasma-phone-components provides phone functionality for Plasma. &as_root; First, start a subshell that will exit on error: bash -e Install all of the packages by running the following commands: while read -r line; do # Get the file name, ignoring comments and blank lines if $(echo $line | grep -E -q '^ *$|^#' ); then continue; fi file=$(echo $line | cut -d" " -f2) pkg=$(echo $file|sed 's|^.*/||') # Remove directory packagedir=$(echo $pkg|sed 's|\.tar.*||') # Package directory tar -xf $file pushd $packagedir # Fix some build issues when generating some configuration files case $name in plasma-workspace) sed -i '/set.HAVE_X11/a set(X11_FOUND 1)' CMakeLists.txt ;; khotkeys) sed -i '/X11Extras/a set(X11_FOUND 1)' CMakeLists.txt ;; plasma-desktop) sed -i '/X11.h)/i set(X11_FOUND 1)' CMakeLists.txt ;; esac mkdir build cd build cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$KF5_PREFIX \ -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \ -DBUILD_TESTING=OFF \ -Wno-dev .. && make as_root make install popd as_root rm -rf $packagedir as_root /sbin/ldconfig done < plasma-&plasma5-version;.md5 exit If you did not set $KF5_PREFIX to /usr, create symlinks to allow display managers to find Plasma: as_root install -dvm 755 /usr/share/xsessions && cd /usr/share/xsessions/ && [ -e plasma.desktop ] || as_root ln -sfv $KF5_PREFIX/share/xsessions/plasma.desktop && as_root install -dvm 755 /usr/share/wayland-sessions && cd /usr/share/wayland-sessions/ && [ -e plasma.desktop ] || as_root ln -sfv $KF5_PREFIX/share/wayland-sessions/plasma.desktop If you built Plasma with the recommended Linux PAM support, create necessary configuration files by running the following commands as the root user: cat > /etc/pam.d/kde << "EOF" # Begin /etc/pam.d/kde auth requisite pam_nologin.so auth required pam_env.so auth required pam_succeed_if.so uid >= 1000 quiet auth include system-auth account include system-account password include system-password session include system-session # End /etc/pam.d/kde EOF cat > /etc/pam.d/kde-np << "EOF" # Begin /etc/pam.d/kde-np auth requisite pam_nologin.so auth required pam_env.so auth required pam_succeed_if.so uid >= 1000 quiet auth required pam_permit.so account include system-account password include system-password session include system-session # End /etc/pam.d/kde-np EOF cat > /etc/pam.d/kscreensaver << "EOF" # Begin /etc/pam.d/kscreensaver auth include system-auth account include system-account # End /etc/pam.d/kscreensaver EOF You can start Plasma5 from runlevel 3, using , or from runlevel 5, using a Display Manager, such as . 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/startplasma-x11 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.
