BUILDING

The building procedure is simple:

1. Clone this repository

  git clone https://github.com/w41l/wlskde.git

2. Change directory into wlskde and run:

  ./kde.SlackBuild

3. By default the build script WILL NOT upgrade already installed packages with same name. To "ALWAYS" install or upgrade the package, run the build script with environment variable:

  UPGRADE_PACKAGES="always" ./kde.SlackBuild

4. To install/upgrade single module (ie. just the 'plasma'), run:

  ./kde.SlackBuild plasma

5. To install/upgrade two or more modules, run:

  ./kde.SlackBuild frameworks,plasma

6. To install/upgrade single package or several packages, run:

  ./kde.SlackBuild plasma pkg1
  (or)
  cd plasma/pkg1 && ./pkg1.SlackBuild
  (or)
  ./kde.SlackBuild plasma pkg1:pkg2:pkg3

7. Use 'xwmconfig' to use KDE session for startx or start sddm at boot.

8. Reboot the machine is recommended.
