The KDE on FreeBSD project packages CMake, Qt, and software from the KDE Community, for the FreeBSD ports tree.
The software includes a full desktop environment called KDE Plasma (for both X11 and Wayland) and hundreds of applications that can be used on any FreeBSD machine.
The mailto:kde@FreeBSD.org[KDE team] is part of mailto:desktop@FreeBSD.org[desktop@] and mailto:multimedia@FreeBSD.org[multimedia@] teams, building the software stack to make FreeBSD beautiful and usable as a daily driver graphical desktop workstation.
==== Infrastructure
Qt6, PyQt6, and PySide6 were updated to 6.10.2.
The ports for Qt 6.11.0 are available for testing in the link:https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-ports-kde/tree/qt6-6.11.0-merged[development branch].
==== KDE Stack
KDE Frameworks, Plasma, and Gear release happen very regularly.
mailto:kde@FreeBSD.org[KDE team] lands these updates shortly after their upstream release.
* KDE Frameworks ports were updated to 6.24.
* KDE Plasma Desktop was updated to 6.6.3.
* KDE Gear was updated to 25.12.3.
The recent Plasma update has revealed a link:https://bugs.freebsd.org/293368[bug] in the FreeBSD implementation of man:timerfd[2] which causes high CPU usage in plasmashell.
The bug has been already fixed in FreeBSD-CURRENT and merged to affected stable branches.
