ALT Linux

KF5/Plasma 5 packages are available in our Sisyphus development repository as of April 2015, its users can just install any of these metapackages: kde5-mini kde5-small kde5 kde5-big kde5-maxi; an appropriate LiveCD is in alpha stage and will join the regular builds when ready for that.

AOSC OS

AOSC OS provides the newest KDE Plasma/KF5 packages in its main repository (pre-configured for official releases). Users can get updates to the newest KDE Plasma and KF5 components as soon as they are made public.

Users can also get newest pre-configured KDE releases from the AOSC OS release directory.

Arch Linux

Plasma packages are available in the [extra] repository. To install it run: 

# pacman -Syu
# pacman -S plasma-meta

or 

# pacman -Syu
# pacman -S plasma

Beta releases are available in the [kde-unstable] repository.

Chakra

We provide the Plasma 5 packages by default in our official repositories. Plasma 5 is also the default option on our ISO releases.

Exherbo Linux

We currently provide Plasma 5 packages in the kde repository. They can easily be installed with the help of the plasma set: 

# cave resolve plasma*

Fedora

Supported Fedora releases get Plasma updates as soon as possible. Keep your Fedora installation updated and you are good to go.

See https://apps.fedoraproject.org/packages/plasma-workspace for details on the progress of Plasma updates.

Gentoo Linux

Plasma 5 ebuilds are available in portage see Gentoo wiki KDE article for general information. Upgrading from Plasma 4 is explained in Plasma 5 upgrade guide.

KaOS

Plasma 5 is the default option since February 2015, all installs automatically run the latest Plasma 5 release. Regularly updated ISO images are available on the Download Page

KDE neon

KDE neon has the latest builds of Plasma built continuously from releases, Git stable branches or Git unstable branches.

Kubuntu

Kubuntu 16.04 LTS was released with Plasma 5.5.3. Then, you can upgrade to 5.8.6 via backports.

Kubuntu 17.04 was released with Plasma 5.9.4. You can upgrade to 5.10.5 via backports.

The daily builds, (will become 17.10, when released in October 2017) have Plasma 5.10.5. We plan to release with 5.10.5, as 5.11.0 will be after final beta freeze, and bugfix point releases required for a stable Ubuntu release will be in the final freeze period, but should hopefully be in backports-ppa shortly after.

Kubuntu KCI provides the latest from KDE git. Add ppa:kubuntu-ci/unstable for testing. WARNING: Do not use on production systems. Ensure that you have ppa-purge installed in case you must roll back to your previous state. Zero guarantees that will fix a broken system.

openSUSE

Users of openSUSE Tumbleweed get the latest KDE software directly after release, build testing and openQA testing. Just keep your system up-to-date.

openSUSE Leap 42 ships the LTS version of Plasma (5.8).

Additional repositories provide latest (beta/rc/stable) releases and automated builds from git master for both Leap and Tumbleweed.

ROSA

We provide Plasma 5 packages for ROSA Desktop Fresh in the official Main repository. They can easily be installed with a single command: 

# urpmi task-plasma5

But please note that it will remove KDE Workspace 4, including KDM. So don't install task-plasma5 from KDE 4 session.

There are also unofficial ISOs with Plasma 5 desktop. See ROSA forum for details.

Slackware

You can get Plasma 5 packages for Slackware-current from Alien BOB's repository. These packages will replace KDE 4 if you have installed that. Read all about it on Eric's blog
