Hi,

I wanted to test installing plasma desktop on Obarun with command

sudo pacman -S plasma-meta kdebase-lib but I got error of missing package kdebase-lib , perhaps this command is too old to work on Obarun. I wonder if I can install and use plasma desktop on Obarun?
@ I wonder if I can install and use plasma desktop on Obarun?

yes , plasma work perfectly on Obarun

package needed :
accountsservice
media-player-info
qt5-base
qt5-xcb-private-headers
plasma-meta
plasma-workspace
you may want networkmanager (default on plasma), so
libmm-glib
libnm-glib
networkmanager
networkmanager-s6serv
modemmanager
libmbim
dhclient
to enable the service
$ sudo s6opts enable networkmanager
maybe you need to rectify the /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf as it
[main]
dhcp=dhclient
and you may want pulseaudio for the sound, install the package and recitfy the /etc/pulse/default.pa as it
# echo "load-module module-device-manager" >> /etc/pulse/default.pa
enjoy

Note: dbus need to be installed and the daemon need to be enabled
Thank you dear eric,
these steps came quite handy, Plasma was installed smoothly though I had weirdly issue with networkmanager connecting to wifi but after some research I found out that changing login manager from lxdm to sddm solved that issue.
