What's available

For Users

  • Updated KDE Software Compilation releases
    These are newer versions of the KDE SC as released by the KDE community, plus openSUSE patches (released and unreleased). Also available for older openSUSE versions. These packages are maintained by the KDE Team.
  • KDE UpdatedApps
    Newer versions of individual KDE applications from openSUSE Factory, which have been packaged for released distributions. You do not need to update your KDE as well, but you may do so, because KDE is forward compatible. These packages are maintained by the KDE Team.
  • KDE Extra
    KDE applications not available in the core distribution.

For Contributors

  • KDE Unstable Playground
    Alphas, betas and SCM snapshots of KDE applications under development.
