It has been derived from the monolithic KDE 4 desktop. They implement the KDE Display Environment (Plasma 5). &lfs78_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 , , , , (built with qt5), , and Recommended , , , , , , and Optional , , ibus, libgps, libhybris, libraw1394, mockcpp, Qalculate, Qapt, and SCIM 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 --cut-dirs=3 -A '*.xz' -np $url The options used here are: -r recurse through child directories -nH disable generation of host-prefixed directories --cut-dirs=3 remove three levels of directories when saving -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" 17272fb4160f3a1a5c2abd72cf140a07 kde-cli-tools-5.5.3.tar.xz 023d3107154042f51e3b762c1605520a kdecoration-5.5.3.tar.xz 6a40b0d2e43b5338156ae35bdecb8bfa kwayland-5.5.3.tar.xz a1b180699d229ca32dcfbba001730aa7 libkscreen-5.5.3.tar.xz faa47a9ed2ff8bde18a1a3af7431a120 libksysguard-5.5.3.tar.xz 1b5ce90bfc3ca40a50195fa75b811e70 breeze-5.5.3.tar.xz 45c96d645c27cd87e851a6e5448e57f4 breeze-gtk-5.5.3.tar.xz e8459dd31a20a10298c61db6290b0d44 kscreenlocker-5.5.3.tar.xz 0a0c455360e4aa5af96660e20f1c13fc oxygen-5.5.3.tar.xz 3677c77cea0db406d2445c7e43753a27 khelpcenter-5.5.3.tar.xz 2d01703aac425799cac01e59b76aaa57 kinfocenter-5.5.3.tar.xz 167aedd644053d010f02daecf748b9f6 ksysguard-5.5.3.tar.xz 672d6e03fe621b09b70de16b277d790e kwin-5.5.3.tar.xz 6e15c10bc83889917d9471318ff3e6f7 systemsettings-5.5.3.tar.xz 1a8c83d8308c4aa86c29dc9d3c5d4cdf plasma-workspace-5.5.3.tar.xz 60a8f0b9133651b3e6d8f8bc4cd3236c bluedevil-5.5.3.tar.xz c40b3062286ab9378c1f2131d0140bff kde-gtk-config-5.5.3.tar.xz f35d58f740037f393470ec2390642af1 khotkeys-5.5.3.tar.xz 5faa6dca67930e2b03dee3ab0c5443a9 kmenuedit-5.5.3.tar.xz 34756b46f8e5172a95122e184ce0074b kscreen-5.5.3.tar.xz 801e55f83760deccabb58e10161d4c46 kwallet-pam-5.5.3.tar.xz 683c0921a52373d17bd19c3c06314dc9 kwayland-integration-5.5.3.tar.xz 207040832d0a2878b0ce5dd41c8d2888 kwrited-5.5.3.tar.xz cc4811e0e54c16279c934cd2e5c0ea2b milou-5.5.3.tar.xz ef1c6011cb407516dff8380893617384 plasma-nm-5.5.3.tar.xz 34bf67146947fb28dd6527ca8bd5f673 plasma-pa-5.5.3.tar.xz 24cc446c50e04ee463a85b2e3ee74182 plasma-workspace-wallpapers-5.5.3.tar.xz 4fb0b176c506e259ca6e3613419ceaa2 polkit-kde-agent-1-5.5.3.tar.xz aecacfed1e19caae0785f79bfc3bd395 powerdevil-5.5.3.tar.xz ed01bcf7d3ad8a8e398d8d9ee489e971 plasma-desktop-5.5.3.tar.xz 50398a83ab91afc4eb2cc0793e2e8ea4 kdeplasma-addons-5.5.3.tar.xz 5a3d42cc596554f231795e1c3b653e7d kgamma5-5.5.3.tar.xz 254dab24a6d868ffd9892a580e011d51 ksshaskpass-5.5.3.tar.xz 56ef7525e72457deed301d947a2cb4cd plasma-mediacenter-5.5.3.tar.xz 4123319b6917cb899bfaa2c78bb2bb56 plasma-sdk-5.5.3.tar.xz 87a4fa84da38747588fdbb30f8796967 sddm-kcm-5.5.3.tar.xz 99c9e12c5e5a84041e1bd1729e420111 user-manager-5.5.3.tar.xz 95bbda7a85501c1c9b4167fbd458b430 discover-5.5.3.tar.xz EOF &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 mkdir build cd build OPTS="" case $srcdir in kwayland-&plasma5-version; ) OPTS="-DECM_MKSPECS_INSTALL_DIR=$KF5_PREFIX/share/mkspecs/modules" ;; esac cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$KF5_PREFIX \ -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \ -DLIB_INSTALL_DIR=lib \ -DBUILD_TESTING=OFF \ $OPTS \ -Wno-dev .. && make as_root make install popd rm -rf $packagedir as_root /sbin/ldconfig done < plasma-&plasma5-version;.md5 exit cd $KF5_PREFIX/share/plasma/plasmoids for j in $(find -name \*.js); do as_root ln -sfv ../code/$(basename $j) $(dirname $j)/../ui/ done ln -sfv ../code/$(basename $j) $(dirname $j)/../ui/: Create symbolic links so qml files can find needed javascript modules. If you have KDE4 installed as well as Plasma 5, make sure the PATH environment setting has the Plasma 5 binaries before the KDE4 entry. You can ensure this by running: pathprepend /opt/kf5/bin before running startx. You can start Plasma5 from runlevel 3, using , or from runlevel 5, using a Display Manager, such as . 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 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).
