According to the current wiki page these days the kde-meta has been replaced |
| 10 |
with plasma-meta. This is how I have configured plasma-meta: |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
Installed versions: 5.15.5(5)(12:58:00 14/06/19)(bluetooth browser- |
| 13 |
integration crypt desktop-portal display-manager elogind handbook legacy- |
| 14 |
systray pam pm-utils sddm wallpapers -consolekit -discover -grub -gtk - |
| 15 |
networkmanager -plymouth -pulseaudio -sdk -systemd) |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
BUT ... I am thinking of uninstalling it, deplclean-ing my world and |
| 18 |
installing kde-plasma/plasma-desktop which is the slim version, while keeping |
| 19 |
some select kde-meta packages I need/want. |

I think the kdebase-meta was meant to be a transitional package from KDE4 to |
| 28 |
plasma/KDE5. I suspect this has been superseded by kde-plasma/plasma-meta, |
| 29 |
but I'm not sure. In any case, I do not have this installed. |

Sadly I'm not there yet. I've got to figure out how to get back my Suspend to |
| 52 |
Ram, Hibernate, Reboot, and Shutdown buttons, without re-importing |
| 53 |
NetworkManager, or at least without having it being started by powerdevil. |
