I installed Kubuntu image long time ago, and did several release upgrades since that. I have package kubuntu-full installed, and boot into KDE. Currently it looks like I'm using ubuntu:



~: lsb_release -a

No LSB modules are available.

Distributor ID: Ubuntu

Description:    Ubuntu 13.10

Release:        13.10

Codename:       saucy


There's not a single kubuntu word in my /etc/apt/sources.list, or is it



Kubuntu = Ubuntu - Unity + KDE


now?



For example there's a Pre-Alpha Ubuntu Thar already, but no Kubuntu one. Would I get Kubuntu Thar, by installing Ubuntu Thar in the way mentioned above?



Probably Kubuntu team now are the guys responsible for KDE working in Ubuntu.

Kubuntu



Kubuntu = Ubuntu core packages + KDE desktop + Kubuntu default settings



You could have the KDE desktop without the Kubuntu.

Current kubuntu-settings-desktop: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=kubuntu-settings-desktop&searchon=names&suite=all&section=all



Kubuntu default settings



http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/kubuntu-settings-desktop :




Settings and artwork for the Kubuntu




If the Kubuntu default setting is installed:




  • The Grub is telling that you have an option to launch the Kubuntu

  • The Plymouth is telling that the Kubuntu is starting

  • The KDE default application launcher has the Kubuntu logo

  • The desktop cube has the Kubuntu logo

  • The default plasma desktop is having the Kubuntu default settings

  • etc...



The KDE System Settings > About System is telling that you are using the Kubuntu

Trusty



The Kubuntu daily builds are still pointing to the Saucy: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/daily-live/current/



The Kubuntu Trusty can be installed by installing the Kubuntu Saucy and upgrading to the Trusty.



The Trusty development is still fresh - Kubuntu plans can be found from the Kubuntu Trello: http://www.kubuntuforums.net/showthread.php?63870-When-is-the-new-LTS-due&p=337565&viewfull=1#post337565
