They implement the KDE Display Environment (Plasma 5). &lfs82_checked; The instructions below build all of the Plasma 5 packages in one step by using a bash script. Package Information Download (HTTP): Download (FTP): Download MD5 sum: &plasma5-md5sum; Download size: &plasma5-size; Estimated disk space required: &plasma5-buildsize; Estimated build time: &plasma5-time; Plasma 5 Dependencies Required , , , , , , built with , , , , , , and Recommended , , , , , , and Optional , , , appstream-qt, KDevPlatform, libgps, libhybris, libraw1394, mockcpp, packagekit-qt, Qalculate, Qapt, SCIM, and socat (for pam_kwallet) User Notes: The easiest way to get the KDE Plasma5 packages is to use a single wget to fetch them all at once: url=http://download.kde.org/stable/plasma/&plasma5-version;/ wget -r -nH -nd -A '*.xz' -np $url The options used here are: -r recurse through child directories -nH disable generation of host-prefixed directories -nd do not create a hierarchy of directories -A '*.xz' just get the *.xz files -np don't get parent directories The order of building files is important due to internal dependencies. Create the list of files in the proper order as follows: cat > plasma-&plasma5-version;.md5 << "EOF" 15e8b3abd34c7bed89247dcd89677da9 kde-cli-tools-5.12.5.tar.xz 7a6426a12788a1dc5fceb3ed0cf15818 kdecoration-5.12.5.tar.xz 1e3b3aa0026bf51121fa36f4380db6e5 libkscreen-5.12.5.tar.xz 2ffb11f91a451f90c034b5b657d38563 libksysguard-5.12.5.tar.xz 45cc26a47b5c742e93ba17e59d72d91a breeze-5.12.5.tar.xz 4df4338cb8781e068e8b53987430cbda breeze-gtk-5.12.5.tar.xz 30afafc98d6d3eecec15c1bad3ce0362 kscreenlocker-5.12.5.tar.xz 7622748eafe631e46574e44ba53bdaea oxygen-5.12.5.tar.xz 5d0f3d5844ac31f2665ed0d5966d7751 kinfocenter-5.12.5.tar.xz 25bfe4cb9bbb782c938f92963ca1cd59 ksysguard-5.12.5.tar.xz 39cc7321fe28c2b4a76426da8a830d7c kwin-5.12.5.tar.xz 08b5ebd84ee25d2306d30e1afe33f924 systemsettings-5.12.5.tar.xz 28906f048a968798f7311c1068aebb8b plasma-workspace-5.12.5.tar.xz 60e92f4d444cba7e31041bf9c426d1aa bluedevil-5.12.5.tar.xz 26706a36cb19c270281a0b69f8ab2609 kde-gtk-config-5.12.5.tar.xz af8bda38832760df6bc0f07aa784f8f3 khotkeys-5.12.5.tar.xz 450833cf1ccd244c40102cd249e73d2b kmenuedit-5.12.5.tar.xz bdd7f9036220e39f23b1c57cb373174d kscreen-5.12.5.tar.xz 667a9ef9a5f5fa4664e337d405cdfdb6 kwallet-pam-5.12.5.tar.xz dffa9e29a181d6d70bcf20a5d9de0781 kwayland-integration-5.12.5.tar.xz bc51d2068b1f442214059059761db068 kwrited-5.12.5.tar.xz a6297963718e9315e72e1711e4f71e5c milou-5.12.5.tar.xz 2f52d77ade3582ce05bc58c4d2ea2677 plasma-nm-5.12.5.tar.xz 0104e49c0e6332fdec3a61ddc9732c44 plasma-pa-5.12.5.tar.xz 30c03aeab0d69d87d08a5b1e57468f8c plasma-workspace-wallpapers-5.12.5.tar.xz b42ed1b4dfbc7f594529b12b4659a8e1 polkit-kde-agent-1-5.12.5.tar.xz 5546090caa4cf11656091ae229351551 powerdevil-5.12.5.tar.xz bfcf9e48662c34d732b5f498b4627819 plasma-desktop-5.12.5.tar.xz d16a91ea15fc12e7c18d420370ad0bd6 kdeplasma-addons-5.12.5.tar.xz 0ce29fe24ed752a36ce7fb6ff1be9fb1 kgamma5-5.12.5.tar.xz 805ba1b34c292e43f7791796d552a48c ksshaskpass-5.12.5.tar.xz #e7de5fcb703e47edc4f3fa5c9094dd9a plasma-sdk-5.12.5.tar.xz ba33b3187ddee122be32ffe0445564fb sddm-kcm-5.12.5.tar.xz f4268471d391b2fb7f51818b7b96c9f6 user-manager-5.12.5.tar.xz 8ae2ca25329d2126311e552fc24bff5c discover-5.12.5.1.tar.xz #9101bdf4a6664dddc0e15b8fda4681e9 discover-5.12.5.tar.xz #420c6369da5761fcee359cce8693badd breeze-grub-5.12.5.tar.xz #dbba7538a93056a57f52ecfe31eaf8cb breeze-plymouth-5.12.5.tar.xz d28812344e8e0f47b1121f56d3e13750 kactivitymanagerd-5.12.5.tar.xz df9ade96432e4f5eb968e12ed7a7a72c plasma-integration-5.12.5.tar.xz ed8dbcc85b1a1f74dc04b2be5e64b36a plasma-tests-5.12.5.tar.xz e1a1a785e1f6c4a64af95e4989a07bea plymouth-kcm-5.12.5.tar.xz f9081bb509a565f3d11f28cd6b0a0914 xdg-desktop-portal-kde-5.12.5.tar.xz 08c841d2ea5b29ec4ffca146deeac75a drkonqi-5.12.5.tar.xz 550e6df7522a10e5262136a54b88a254 plasma-vault-5.12.5.tar.xz EOF The breeze-grub, breeze-plymouth, and plymouth-kcm packages above are all for customized support of Plymouth which is designed to be run within an initial ram disk during boot (see ).

If you built Plasma with the recommended Linux PAM support, create necessary configuration files by running the following commands as the root user: cat >> /etc/pam.d/kde << "EOF" # Begin /etc/pam.d/kde auth requisite pam_nologin.so auth required pam_env.so auth required pam_succeed_if.so uid >= 1000 quiet auth include system-auth account include system-account password include system-password session include system-session # End /etc/pam.d/kde EOF cat > /etc/pam.d/kde-np << "EOF" # Begin /etc/pam.d/kde-np auth requisite pam_nologin.so auth required pam_env.so auth required pam_succeed_if.so uid >= 1000 quiet auth required pam_permit.so account include system-account password include system-password session include system-session # End /etc/pam.d/kde-np EOF cat > /etc/pam.d/kscreensaver << "EOF" # Begin /etc/pam.d/kscreensaver auth include system-auth account include system-account # End /etc/pam.d/kscreensaver EOF You can start Plasma5 from runlevel 3, using , or from runlevel 5, using a Display Manager, such as . You can start Plasma5 from a TTY, using . To start Plasma 5 using , run the following commands: cat > ~/.xinitrc << "EOF" ck-launch-session dbus-launch --exit-with-session $KF5_PREFIX/bin/startkde EOF startx cat > ~/.xinitrc << "EOF" dbus-launch --exit-with-session $KF5_PREFIX/bin/startkde EOF startx The X session starts on the first unused virtual terminal, normally vt7. You can switch to another vtn simultaneously pressing the keys Ctrl-Alt-Fn (n=1, 2, ...). To switch back to the X session, normally started at vt7, use Ctrl-Alt-F7. The vt where the command startx was executed will display many messages, including X starting messages, applications automatically started with the session, and eventually, some warning and error messages. You may prefer to redirect those messages to a log file, which not only will keep the initial vt uncluttered, but can also be used for debugging purposes. This can be done starting X with: startx &> ~/x-session-errors You may wish to drop consolekit and/or dbus-launch, e.g., just using startkde in ~/.xinitrc. However some capabilities such as mounting or umounting file systems from a file manager will not be possible, or the reboot option may be absent or inoperative, among other problems. When shutting down or rebooting, the shutdown messages appear on the vt where X was running. If you wish to see those messages, simultaneously press keys Alt-F7 (assuming that X was running on vt7). If you intend to start Plasma using a display manager such as , there will be two entries for Plasma, one for use with Xorg, and another for Wayland. Modify the Xorg entry with the following command, as the root user, so that you can differentiate between the two: sed '/^Name=/s/Plasma/Plasma on Xorg/' -i /usr/share/xsessions/plasma.desktop Installed Programs Installed Libraries Installed Directories There are too many plasma programs (50 in /opt/kf5/bin) to list separately here. There are too many plasma libraries (39 in /opt/kf5/lib) to list separately here. There are too many plasma directories (over 1000 in /opt/kf5) to list separately here.
