Install KDE Plasma 5.16 on Ubuntu 18.04
by davide445 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4QK1N)
Using Kubuntu I find annoying the Discover update behavior. In the latest Plasma 5.16 release seems to be improved, but there are no backport to 18.04. Being on Plasma 5.12.8 I suppose there are many other improvements in the latest four releases.
Discovered this instruction to install it anyway, basically using KDE Neon repository to install the needed packages on existing Ubuntu installation.
Being not an expert, want to know if I'm risking something apart some not yet discovered bug in KDE. Maybe there are specific reasons why 5.16 (and 5.15) are not supported in 18.04.
