| ====How to install test versions of Plasma Next ====
| | #REDIRECT [[Plasma/Live_Images]] |
| | |
| | |
| ==Kubuntu==
| |
| | |
| Add the Neon5 repository:
| |
| <syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
| |
| sudo apt-add-repository ppa:neon/kf5-snapshot-weekly
| |
| sudo apt-get update
| |
| </syntaxhighlight>
| |
| (If you would like more frequent updates, (which also bear the risk of breaking more often!), use "ppa:neon/kf5-snapshot-daily" or "ppa:neon/kf5" for the most frequent updates.
| |
| To install Project Neon 5, issue the command
| |
| | |
| <syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
| |
| sudo apt-get install project-neon5-session project-neon5-utils \
| |
| project-neon5-konsole
| |
| </syntaxhighlight>
| |
| | |
| === Running Project Neon 5 ===
| |
| | |
| The LightDM login screen will now offer a Project Neon 5 session. You can also run neon5-env, and start plasma-shell from there. By default, we start an xterm with the environment set up. In order to start plasma, run "plasma-shell", for Konsole, start "konsole".
| |
| If you want to keep your current session running (which is probably most convenient), you can run
| |
| <syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
| |
| neon5-env
| |
| kdeinit5 --kded
| |
| kwin --replace &
| |
| plasmashell
| |
| </syntaxhighlight>
| |
| to start Plasma in a window (not as desktop or root window).
| |
| | |
| ==openSUSE==
| |
| openSUSE offers snapshots from git master updated frequently as well. Add the KDE:Unstable:Frameworks repository (http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:KDE_repositories#Plasma_Next) and the Qt53 repository (available at the same link) and install the plasma-next-session package to have a session available at the next login.
| |
| | |
| ==Gentoo==
| |
| | |
| Gentoo provides beta as well as live ebuilds inside kde overlay, with dependencies in qt overlay. The following assumes you have a basic understanding of Gentoo Portage and already [http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Layman set up layman] initially:
| |
| <syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
| |
| layman -a kde && layman -a qt
| |
| emerge @kde-next-live --autounmask-write=y
| |
| </syntaxhighlight>
| |
| | |
| | |
| To make the most of it, run
| |
| <syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
| |
| layman -S && smart-live-rebuild
| |
| </syntaxhighlight>
| |
| to get the latest packaging changes for qt and kde and update any ''live'' packages that got new commits since last time.
| |
| | |
| See also: [http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:KDE/Frameworks Gentoo KDE/Frameworks Packaging Status]
| |
| | |
| ==Fedora==
| |
| On Fedora 20, you need to add Copr repository with KDE Frameworks first:
| |
| <syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
| |
| cd /etc/yum.repos.d/
| |
| wget http://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/dvratil/kde-frameworks/repo/fedora-20-x86_64/dvratil-kde-frameworks-fedora-20-x86_64.repo
| |
| </syntaxhighlight>
| |
| Fedora 21 and above ship KDE Frameworks in distrubition repositories.
| |
| | |
| Add Plasma 5 Copr to Yum and install <tt>plasma-5</tt> meta-package, that will install all needed packages.
| |
| <syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
| |
| wget http://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/dvratil/plasma-5/repo/fedora-20-x86_64/dvratil-plasma-5-fedora-20-x86_64.repo
| |
| yum install plasma-5
| |
| </syntaxhighlight>
| |
| | |
| On Fedora 21, replace <tt>fedora-20</tt> by <tt>fedora-21</tt>. On 32bit system, replace <tt>x86_64</tt> by <tt>i386</tt>.
| |
| | |
| Our Plasma 5 packages are mostly co-installable with KDE 4, except for the Workspace itself.
| |
| | |
| If you use DNF, simply install <tt>dnf-plugins-core</tt> and run
| |
| <syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
| |
| dnf copr enable dvratil/kde-frameworks
| |
| dnf copr enable dvratil/plasma-5
| |
| dnf install plasma-5
| |
| </syntaxhighlight>
| |
| | |
| ==From Source==
| |
| Following the instructions here it will automatically build all KDE software that has a KF5 port, most notably the Plasma workspaces, but also development previews of Kate, Konsole and Dolphin.
| |
| | |
| Afterwards follow the guides for "Runtime setup" and then run "kwin --replace" and "plasmashell".
| |
| | |
