KDE neon in Containers
We make container images of KDE neon for quick and easy testing of KDE software without having to reinstall your distro.
Use distrobox to easily run these.
Install docker with your distro or e.g. snap install docker.
Install distrobox from your distro apt install distrobox or with e.g. wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/89luca89/distrobox/main/install | sudo sh.
Some handy commands...
You can replace unstable with testing or user
distrobox create --image invent-registry.kde.org/neon/docker-images/plasma:unstable
distrobox enter plasma-unstable
distrobox-export --app kate #run inside the container and exports a desktop file to your host system's menu
distrobox upgrade plasma-unstable #upgrade your container via apt when in your host shell
Full tweaking list at at the distrobox github docs
Full Session
You can experiment with full session instructions.
