Add the following repository to your software sources list:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

IMPORTANT<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please note that more bugfix releases are scheduled by KDE for Plasma 5.24, so while we feel these backports will be beneficial to enthusiastic adopters, users wanting to use a Plasma release with more rounds of stabilisation\/bugfixes \u2018baked in\u2019 may find it advisable to stay with Plasma 5.22 as included in the original 21.10 (Impish Indri) release.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Kubuntu Backports PPA for 21.10 also currently contains newer versions of KDE Gear<\/a> (formerly Applications) and other KDE software. The PPA will also continue to receive updated versions of KDE packages other than Plasma, for example KDE Frameworks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Issues with Plasma itself can be reported on the KDE bugtracker [1]. In the case of packaging or other issues, please provide feedback on our mailing list [2], IRC [3], and\/or file a bug against our PPA packages [4].<\/p>\n\n\n\n
