Ubuntu – How to update KDE Plasma to 5.13 on Kubuntu 18.04

18.04kdekubuntupackage-managementplasma

I thought that upgrading to 18.04.1 would give me KDE Plasma 5.13, having read this page, but thanks to the comments here I realised that I already have 18.04.1. I don't see any notification from the Updates widget about a newer version of Plasma though. Why is that? Can I get the latest version?

https://community.kde.org/Neon/BionicUpgrades isn't meant for users of Kubuntu. It's meant for users of KDE neon which isn't supported at Ask Ubuntu.

If you're on Kubuntu 18.04, please note that Plasma 5.12 is regarded as LTS which means you'll get updates only to 5.12 and you won't get updated to Plasma 5.13 or higher during the life of Kubuntu 18.04.

Please monitor https://kubuntu.org/news/ or https://www.kubuntuforums.net/forumdisplay.php/30-Kubuntu-Announcements for news on availability of Plasma updates for Kubuntu 18.04..
