What is KDE?

KDE (the K Desktop Environment) is a powerful open source graphical desktop environment for Unix workstations. It combines ease of use, contemporary functionality, and outstanding graphical design with the technological superiority of the Unix operating system.

KDE in Debian

You can find information about KDE in Debian from the Debian Qt/KDE maintainers website.

Installation

There are three options to install KDE in Debian:

How to install

Description

"KDE Desktop"

task, see below

Debian's selection of applications
(This is what is installed on a freshly installed KDE system. It include some applications non kde.org applications, like openoffice, iceweasel, inkscape...)

KDE (Upstream)

kde package

The standard/upstream distribution of the KDE desktop environment.

KDE (core only)

kde-core package

This is a minimalist KDE installation
(You have to install all end-user applications later). Above packages depend on this on.

  • {i} Watch out recommended packages (i.e packages dependencies) !
    (you might or might not want to install them).

For developers:

  • kde-devel - A full development suite for developing KDE-based applications (removed at meta-kde 5:50).

Installing "KDE Desktop" task

KDE Desktop task is what is installed by Debian-Installer's Desktop "task" (if you typed install desktop=kde at DebianInstaller CD prompt.)

  • To install KDE later, first make sure that tasksel and aptitude are installed:

    apt-get install aptitude tasksel

Then, install the kde-desktop task:

  • aptitude --without-recommends  install ~t^standard$ ~t^desktop$ ~t^kde-desktop$
  • (This is what DebianInstaller would have installed in a new system, but you might want/need to uninstall the current display manager).

KDE Desktop - Content

FYI,

The "KDE Desktop" task is actually the sum of tasksel's common desktop (desktop) and tasksel's selected desktop (kde-desktop) :

  • #tasksel -t install kde desktop
    debconf-apt-progress -- aptitude -q --without-recommends -o APT::Install-Recommends=no -y install ~t^desktop$ ~t^gkde-desktop$

As of DebianSqueeze, this corresponds to:

(tasksel --task-packages desktop ; tasksel --task-packages kde-desktop) | sort -u
