Integrates OpenQA image testing into CI. Builds images once in the imaging job, then passes the resulting image and update channel to the OpenQA pipeline in kde-linux/os-autoinst-distri-kdelinux. For regular test builds, upload the built ISO and a temporary sysupdate tree to ci-artifacts on storage.kde.org. The resulting IMAGE_URL, STAGING_CHANNEL_URL and ephemeral update signing key are exported through the imaging job dotenv artifact so OpenQA can boot the image and run upgrade tests against the build under test. For protected default-branch builds, stage the release artifacts under a per-job staging prefix in the kde-linux bucket. OpenQA tests the staged ISO and sysupdate channel before the publish job is allowed to run. Publishing downloads the staged artifacts, uploads the public ISO/torrent and sysupdate assets to files.kde.org, chunks and uploads the root to the desync chunk store, then merges the staged S3 tree into the live tree on the bucket and regenerates the published SHA256SUMS.
KDE Linux
This is the repository for KDE Linux, codenamed "Project Banana": a KDE-owned general-purpose Linux®-based operating system.
The goal of KDE Linux is to create a bulletproof OS suitable for normal people, showcasing the best of KDE that we can proudly recommend to users and OEMs, with a coherent "here's how you get it" story.
Current state
KDE Linux has released the Testing Edition, which provides built-from-git-master versions of Plasma and KDE apps. General daily driving should be usable for adventurous people with backups, but not yet for regular people. See https://linux.kde.org for more details.
Note that the QA & testing infrastructure needs more thoroughness and automation, so expect some bad builds from time to time that you'll need to roll back.
Finally, anything currently pre-installed may be removed before the beta release. Don't build mission-critical workflows around any of it.
