kde-apps

Hi,

During install I just installed the base-kde for plamsa desktop. If I wanted everything preinstalled I'd run locally from the install medium an install. My question is now, is there a third party repository for installing the plasma suite of apps, games on top of the base install or would I need to find a list of packages seperately to install in a one liner command? It's just that things went past that stage in the install but I would like to keep things as unbranded as possible with no extra browsers other than the default, so I went for the base install.

I am new here - but from Gentoo so please be kind - I've spent many years compiling and have face lines to prove it..

I'm looking for the easier life - maybe retirement  ;D

all important you find in repos of artix/archlinux or in AUR. you need not 3rd-party repository, just use

pacman -Ss
for search and

pacman -S
  for install.

for example: pacman -Ss kde is same as https://www.archlinux.org/packages/?q=kde

from AUR (where are more rare or unstable or commercial version, etc.) you must compile yourself or automatic if you install for example trizen

pacman -S trizen
trizen can you use for AUR:
Quote
trizen -S packagefromaur
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/?O=0&SeB=nd&K=kde&outdated=&SB=l&SO=d&PP=50&do_Search

Normally you need not use AUR, lot of packages are precompiled by archlinux or by us.
