KDevelop is a featured-packed and powerful integrated development environment (IDE) that supports a range of programming languages. In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install KDevelop on OpenSUSE Latest.
Before we proceed, please ensure that you have the following:
Before installing any software, it's a good practice to update your system to the latest available packages. You can do this by running the following command in your terminal:
sudo zypper update
KDevelop is available in the OpenSUSE Build Service (OBS) repository. To add the OBS repository, run the following command:
sudo zypper ar https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Extra/openSUSE_<version>/ KDE_Extra
Replace <version> with your OpenSUSE version. For example, if you are using OpenSUSE Leap 15.2, the command would be:
sudo zypper ar https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Extra/openSUSE_Leap_15.2/ KDE_Extra
After adding the OBS repository, you need to refresh the package manager so that it can detect the newly added repository. Run the following command in your terminal:
sudo zypper ref
Now that the OBS repository is added and the package manager refreshed, it's time to install KDevelop. You can install KDevelop by running the following command:
sudo zypper in kdevelop5
This will install the latest version of KDevelop available in the OBS repository.
Once the installation is complete, launch KDevelop from your system's application launcher or by running the following command in your terminal:
kdevelop5
