Title KDE Plasma 5 Upgrade
Author Michael Palimaka <kensington@gentoo.org>

Revision 1
KDE Workspaces 4.11 has reached end of life and is no longer supported
by upstream. It is therefore recommended for all users to upgrade to
KDE Plasma 5.
A detailed upgrade guide is available[1], but in most cases it is enough to
switch to the new desktop/plasma profile, update @world, and
emerge kde-plasma/plasma-meta:
# eselect profile list
# eselect profile set <target>
# emerge --ask --changed-use --newrepo --deep world
# emerge --ask --verbose kde-plasma/plasma-meta
If you normally use KDM to launch Plasma, note that it is no longer supported.
Upstream recommends x11-misc/sddm instead which is pulled in by plasma-meta by
default. OpenRC users should edit /etc/conf.d/xdm and update DISPLAYMANAGER.
Systemd users should run: systemctl reenable sddm.service
Due to an an evolution of KDE upstream's release process[2], the traditional
monolithic KDE 4 release is now split into three distinct components. This
means that KDE Applications are now separate from the Plasma desktop and
older KDE 4-based applications will continue to function as normal inside
Plasma 5.
KDE Workspaces 4.11 will remain in the tree for a reasonable time, but
be warned that it is unmaintained and may cause conflicts with
newer versions of KDE Applications.

2. Как правильно перейти чтобы ничего не поломать?
Сколько не читал про Plasma5, пишут что очень глючная, сырая и не доработанная.
