--->8 I was afraid to mess up my KDE4 system with KDE5 in some sort of parallel fashion, so I found some spare disk space and installed KDE5 into it, using the kde overlay and the .../desktop/plasma profile. It's much easier to manage the two systems separately (dual-boot), and there's far less risk of running, say, two versions of KMail on the same data [1]. I have all my usual user's stuff in ~/common, a separate partition that's mounted on whichever home partition is in use. There was a helpful web page somewhere too but I can't find it now - sorry Dale. 1. I'm not saying the versions of KMail do differ, but they may later during development of KDE5. -- Rgds Peter
