I don't know
But archinstall now installs KDE 6 correctly. Just saying
archinstall is the best. I've been using it out of laziness for a while and it's downright amazing.
Seems to be on ~~unstable~~ testing, so shouldnt be too long
It has been on unstable since Arch had it. Unstable is just mirroring Arch repos. So it wouldn't give you any idea of when the update will reach stable.
Woops sorry, apparently i meant testing
testing has it as well.
Considering the KDE has normally been their flagship edition, I'm wager their working out the final touches.
What? I've been running it for a while. Wayland was pretty borked (couldn't figure out how to make it not be 640x480!), but then I have an NVidia card and I believe that's standard
If you reset all theming options to default (icons, window decorations, colors, etc), and backup your config files, there should be no issues upgrading to KDE6. Keep in mind though, most themes for KDE5 don't work for 6 unless the author updated, or you're willing to manually modify a couple files. Most icon packs should be available though.
That's something they didn't handle all too well imo. They seem to be able to detect incompatible stuff, so it would have been quite easy to help you clean it up. Finding all the places things are stored after they just disappeared from Settings was a bit of a pain.
Your question is kind of confusing, KDE does not do anything specifically with Manjaro, I assume that Manjaro users have to wait for upstream (Arch BTW) to mark it as stable, so if you keep your eyes peeled for Arch releases of Plasma, I'm sure you'll have an idea of a timeline.
Arch already shipped Plasma 6 for a while. Doesn't translate directly to Manjaro though, due to their different way of handling updates.
Reason why I jumped ship. Manjaro is not Arch. If you want Arch with a GUI installer and nice defaults, go with Endeavour or Cachy.
I went with endeavour.
Arch is already on 6.0.4. I'd say we're five weeks into plasma 6. Manjaro is holding it back unusually long.
Tbf, Plasma 6.0.0 was not exactly bug free. Then again, Plasma 6.0.1 was the first release on Arch and for me, it didn't break anything. Only some UI issues and occasional (although never fatal) crashes.
Thanks but nobody asked.
goodluck! hopefully Manjaro won't push another broken package!
have you done an upgrade?
sudo pacman -Syu
What are you doing using a distro thats poorly managed. rofl

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
