Guidelines and HOWTOs/Build from source/Install the dependencies

From KDE Community Wiki

In the following we give the dependencies to install. However it might change and this page might be quickly outdated.

Reading the CMakeLists.txt of the packages you want to install should help you finding what you really need to install. Or read the error logs (see below).

If you need help, see https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved#Getting_in_touch

For the frameworks

deb-based distributions (Debian, Neon, Kubuntu...)

$ sudo apt-get build-dep qtbase5-dev

$ sudo apt-get install libbz2-dev libxslt-dev libxml2-dev shared-mime-info oxygen-icon-theme libgif-dev libvlc-dev libvlccore-dev doxygen gperf bzr libxapian-dev fontforge libgcrypt20-dev libattr1-dev network-manager-dev libgtk-3-dev xsltproc xserver-xorg-dev xserver-xorg-input-synaptics-dev libpwquality-dev modemmanager-dev libxcb-keysyms1-dev libepoxy-dev libpolkit-agent-1-dev libnm-util-dev libnm-glib-dev libegl1-mesa-dev libxcb-xkb-dev libqt5x11extras5-dev libwww-perl libxml-parser-perl libjson-perl libboost-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev libgstreamer1.0-dev libarchive-dev liblmdb-dev cmake git extra-cmake-modules "libkf5.*-dev" llvm llvm-3.6 libclang-3.6-dev bison flex

If you receive errors regarding "libboost1.55-dev" on recent versions of your distribution, try installing "libboost-dev" instead, which should install a more recent (but still compatible) version of Boost. Older deb-based distributions require at least Boost 1.55 however.

openSUSE

openSUSE 13.2 (outdated)

All the necessary dependencies:

$ sudo zypper si -d libqt5-qtbase

openSuSE Tumbleweed

This more complete list (which probably works for OpenSuSE 42.1 as well) allows to compile everything that kdesrc-build's default setup (kf5-qt5-build-include) compiles. Note that it doesn't contain Qt or Qt-based libs, you need that on top, or to compile your own Qt (and then include custom-qt5-libs-build-include in kdesrc-buildrc).

Fedora

All the dependencies used for building frameworks can be installed by running:

$ sudo dnf install gcc-c++ ruby doxygen git bzr flex bison gperf socat boost-devel bzip2-devel libxslt-devel libxml2-devel shared-mime-info oxygen-icon-theme giflib-devel xcb-util-keysyms-devel perl-JSON perl-Pod-Usage "*xcb*-devel" perl-XML-Parser NetworkManager-glib-devel xapian-core-devel libxkbcommon-devel libxkbcommon-x11-devel  systemd-devel libwayland-cursor-devel libwayland-server-devel libepoxy-devel gtk3-devel sane-backends-devel libattr-devel libcanberra-devel libusb-devel libxkbfile-devel fontforge-devel libical-devel gpgme-devel cyrus-sasl-devel openldap-devel libpwquality-devel polkit-devel lmdb-devel perl-Digest-MD5 perl-JSON-PP perl-IO-Socket-SSL qt5-qtscript qt5-qtscript-devel qt5-qtdeclarative-devel docbook-style-xsl

Arch Linux

All the dependencies used for building frameworks can be installed by running:

For the Frameworks, Plasma, and most of the applications

Plasma 5 will need various dependencies to be installed. You can find a list of dependencies for atleast the frameworks here. Any other dependencies can be figured out and installed as you continue building the modules one by one.

At the very minimum, qt5, cmake, g++, git, bzr, libwww-perl, libjson-perl and libxml-parser-perl needs to be installed to get started.

Ubuntu 14.04 LTS

A guide for building Plasma 5 specifically on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS can be found here.

Neon and Kubuntu

Warning

Building Plasma using these instructions does not work on Kubuntu due to the way they have incorrectly set up Qt.


For KDE Neon and Kubuntu 15.04, here's a list of packages that should satisfy all the dependencies of the default kdesrc-build projects, including Frameworks, Applications and Plasma Workspace but excluding kdegames. Just copy-paste this to your terminal:
