Alternative: compile KF5 into Docker

You can use Docker to keep your main system clean and avoid to install a lot of packages.

Follow the instructions given at the follow repository: https://github.com/Mathux/docker-kdesrc-build

Hints for openSUSE 13.2 (outdated) to get started:

1) install

sudo zypper install docker

2) If the error message

FATA[0000] Post http:///var/run/docker.sock/v1.16/images/create?fromImage=busybox%3Alatest: dial unix /var/run/docker.sock: no such file or directory 

appears whenever trying to execute any docker command then you have to start:

sudo systemctl start docker

3) Add your user to the docker group

4) Proceed as described in the github project.

5) Beware of low disk space on your root partition (see http://blog.eye48.com/post/98551740424/when-docker-io-eats-up-your-disc-space)
