Ships Older Releases
Fedora
The Fedora KDE Spin comes with Plasma. New minor Plasma versions are pushed as regular updates for Fedora installations but live media may contain a slightly older release (depending on Fedora’s release cycle).
KaOS
- KaOS is a rolling, independent, built from scratch distribution, focused on Qt and KDE. It makes regular ISO releases available, so any (new) user is not confronted with a large or complicated first update.
Kubuntu
Kubuntu 16.04 LTS and 16.10 support Plasma 5.8.5 through Backports.
Mageia
Mageia ships Plasma in Live Images.
- Stable release 5 ships latest Plasma 4 aka KDE ;-)
- Beta of Mageia 6 ships latest Plasma LTS : 5.8.x
You can update to latest Plasma in live mode, even without installing to disk.
openSUSE
- openSUSE Leap ships Plasma 5.8 but without live images.
