Hello all,
I installed 3.2rc2 from scratch and I can't choose the kde/plasma desktop not even as an optional software.
How can I install this desktop in this new release?
Best Regards

This was announced with the release of R3.2-rc2:
"Beginning with this release, we’ve officially switched from KDE to Xfce4,
which is now the new default desktop environment in dom0."

Even though KDE was removed from the ISO, you should still be able to install
it from the repos. We don't have documentation for this yet, but if the
command matches Xfce, it should be:
$ sudo qubes-dom0-update @kde-desktop-qubes

I remember this announcement, but, why don't maintain it in the ISO as alternative?

It's a pitty. I'm not agree, It's just my point of view becouse Xfce lacks many of the funcionality of KDE, and I don't consider these bugs as critical in KDE/Plasma 5. But it's just my opinion.
