They implement the KDE Display Environment (Plasma 5). &lfs91_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" d81cb7833db2169952c46a468b36b630 kdecoration-5.18.5.tar.xz 940627dd8c2792676dd6f74b8c1130ab libkscreen-5.18.5.tar.xz 47d8b84f73fe6e91a5f7b53fec479a06 libksysguard-5.18.5.tar.xz 8632854a3528f18d8175613cd3457086 breeze-5.18.5.tar.xz ccdb725c872bf797e4ce305a03de3eab breeze-gtk-5.18.5.tar.xz 3bc3534b73ee3542aaab0f2d534763b2 kscreenlocker-5.18.5.tar.xz 07fd865eca86217d879e7470e4afe8b9 oxygen-5.18.5.tar.xz 40441c19d0b72071803dce462fca0ee1 kinfocenter-5.18.5.tar.xz 27f1ef3c7d6b9fb6d9b70d676afc88b7 ksysguard-5.18.5.tar.xz 2881bc40c660bb3a3290f0c08cc189e6 kwin-5.18.5.tar.xz 148072db8bc16ff483ffa444ea7efe9a plasma-workspace-5.18.5.tar.xz 88d833f3b31c79ade207a908eeacf4be bluedevil-5.18.5.tar.xz 3b7d4749556d01fe8eae098b68239366 kde-gtk-config-5.18.5.tar.xz 89f2de2be8fdfa784af9c79d0dadbd32 khotkeys-5.18.5.tar.xz 3c834f0e56d082a00afc4072c00f4139 kmenuedit-5.18.5.tar.xz 4cdf26bbf63abcd146ea88e0aa1911b5 kscreen-5.18.5.tar.xz a16c7c1841e03b1573448157ae3a9347 kwallet-pam-5.18.5.tar.xz 86f5f66830405ed2a386401b246e71b2 kwayland-integration-5.18.5.tar.xz 6cf0af3a35c5dfe0a024d66a76482b26 kwrited-5.18.5.tar.xz d28362417e3ab1ca14edb84e73df2b33 milou-5.18.5.tar.xz 07cd8272fc4694f16495ea20ab72b3c0 plasma-nm-5.18.5.tar.xz 78dd988bcbf45586a159a81a1153b22f plasma-pa-5.18.5.tar.xz e1e1e30bf1b6ccbe245189e19f212777 plasma-workspace-wallpapers-5.18.5.tar.xz 0c99475e2fc152f57fa25c61026e53bf polkit-kde-agent-1-5.18.5.tar.xz c20dd0685bc94392bc15c1514f324c2b powerdevil-5.18.5.tar.xz 17bfd342f132fac634ffedfe2779a675 plasma-desktop-5.18.5.tar.xz 48726cf667fac5c2f38fa045dde636c4 kdeplasma-addons-5.18.5.tar.xz 58a43b57acc4ff8de899d7c57a8ce90a kgamma5-5.18.5.tar.xz 197400f3c766b560dded88bd05266dfc ksshaskpass-5.18.5.tar.xz #65136393474814073877cdb17f953149 plasma-sdk-5.18.5.tar.xz 98c4bd10c1176e2d526b6e4dc55a1835 sddm-kcm-5.18.5.tar.xz 2b16115046eb7fef09fa4f438be64591 user-manager-5.18.5.tar.xz 34bad73daf95652b298bb990578e6bb0 discover-5.18.5.tar.xz #28df67486f98d567f01db35dccba5714 breeze-grub-5.18.5.tar.xz #9dd90fa2b868a8557dc67b0e86af8722 breeze-plymouth-5.18.5.tar.xz d7aa47027645ed446177daac5743dd1b kactivitymanagerd-5.18.5.tar.xz 69312d186b9c7380eeda1032ef327dce plasma-integration-5.18.5.tar.xz 67277d2623d1fd86fcd073000b84b2f3 plasma-tests-5.18.5.tar.xz #39b3b50f740b0122dd0db7391a049731 plymouth-kcm-5.18.5.tar.xz 2a6b5f111a111000e83a039ed1d5685e xdg-desktop-portal-kde-5.18.5.tar.xz 51a6331304780d4f370135f8aeb96848 drkonqi-5.18.5.tar.xz d7084769f2aee6f41d723d85645b9832 plasma-vault-5.18.5.tar.xz 7fb0482503c46c3852f5fd050ce6f449 plasma-browser-integration-5.18.5.tar.xz 4f5147c3932d1548550e633f0aa4a237 kde-cli-tools-5.18.5.tar.xz 8d46069f6129eea764e3e17469b53bd1 systemsettings-5.18.5.tar.xz 08adc73eacabecc6a4f787bfd0c64dc8 plasma-thunderbolt-5.18.5.tar.xz #e43f19f06ad0ec687de9ce5362534d88 plasma-nano-5.18.5.tar.xz #af6d01e56794acc9ca9e721064878133 plasma-phone-components-5.18.5.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.

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.
