Hi! first post ever right here. I am fairly new to Manjaro and I know that in February plasma 5.27 got released, but even though I am using the latest kernel I cannot seem to find the update. When I look in the AUR repositories the latest available is the one I have installed:
KDE Plasma Workspace 5.26.5-3
Other than that my system is fully up to date and have been waiting for a long time to get the update. Any idea on how to get it?
Thank you very much in advance!
Welcome to the forum! 
Did you search before posting? 
The other option is unstable or testing branch
sudo pacman-mirrors -aS unstable && sudo pacman -Syyu
After a few minutes and a reboot you will have Plasma 5.27.2
System:
Host: tiger Kernel: 6.2.6-1-MANJARO arch: x86_64 bits: 64 compiler: gcc
v: 12.2.1 Desktop: KDE Plasma v: 5.27.2 tk: Qt v: 5.15.8 wm: kwin_wayland
vt: 1 dm: SDDM Distro: Manjaro Linux base: Arch Linux
I recommend getting it from testing and then go back to stable. In the command given above, just change the world unstable to testing/stable whenever you want to change the branch.
Of course, do a backup before such update.
I would add one thing to michaldybcza’s comment. You mentioned you were new to Manjaro, if you are also new to Linux as well, I would wait on the stable branch to release 5.27.
If you know what you are doing and the difference between stable/unstable/testing - have fun.
Thank you very much for forwarding that post and the patience. I searched in the forum but clearly not well enough, given that that answer it pretty explicit!.
