My KDE build that I built on RHEL8 beta works [1] on RHEL8 final release. I have taken a RHEL8-Beta, already running KDE, and updated it to RHEL8, and everything updated, and worked [1] I have also taken a fresh installed, and updated, RHEL8 minimal, and run the above commands to install KDE, and it worked also. That doesn't mean this repo will be up forever, but it should last until we get KDE in EPEL8, whenever that happens. Troy [1] - worked: Means that it rebooted and came up, and a few basics apps were tested (Konqueror, graphical file system, konsole). There is not garantee that everything works. _______________________________________________ epel-devel mailing list -- epel-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to epel-devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/epel-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
