my system is currently on Plasma 6.2.5 and i am curious when Plasma 6.3 will be rolled out in Manjaro?
Welcome to the Forum!
Plasma 6.3 is currently only in Unstable Branch at present; it should filter down in a few weeks or so.
If you wish to use the very latest version now, you will need to switch to that.
Provided that there aren’t any serious showstoppers, that is.
Switch to Manjaro Edge (unstable)
Plasma 6.3 was sync’ed to unstable 2025-02-11T23:00:00Z
I am likely a loner when it comes to Manjaro and Plasma stability - it rarely pose any issues. But that is just me …
I understand that Plasma 6.3 is expected to reach the Manjaro Stable branch in mid-March coinciding with the release of the Manjaro 25.0 stable installer ISO’s (for official editions).
This was noted in the first paragraph of the Stable Update 2025-02-04 announcement thread:

Apparently it has now made it into Manjaro Testing as of today.
Well, this is a support forum, so there will always be someone going…
I,m running the Testing Branch, it is at Plasma 6.3
Plasma 6.3 is in Unstable and now (as of today) Testing.
You might see it with the next big update; in other words it’s not far off but it’s “ready when it’s ready”.

That’s just you - if you don’t abuse it, and you don’t have any unfortunate configurations, then it’s brilliant.
I abuse it, and have unfortunate configurations, so it’s slightly riskier for me:
- Klassy (AUR)
- Easystroke (AUR)
- Diigital clock colours need manual editing
/usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.digitalclock/contents/ui/DigitalClock.qml
merging with my edited version (backed up asDigitalClock.colours.qml
)

No Plasma 6.3?
Unstable and Testing already… waiting for Stable.
Same. KDE rarely causes issues.
6.3 I want more than most other revs as it fixes the joystick issues as of late. If you hook up a non-gamepad controller (ie A real joystick), it won’t show in KDE game controller. 6.3 fixes that issue that 6.x brought with it. All this used to work fine in 5.x.

And yes I run Stable. Works fine for gaming. Just this one issue…
