            Bug ID: 358841
           Summary: Installation directions are both wrong and complex

           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Kubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux

Directions for installation on the NEON website are wrong in some parts and
more complex than needed in other ones.

1. Traditional way to download and install a repository authentication key is
"wget -q -O - 'http://archive.neon.kde.org.uk/public.key' | sudo apt-key add -"
all in one line with no temporary file left behind.

2. The "sudo apt update" is to by typed on a new command line, not on the same
one as apt-add-repository

3. The command "sudo apt install neon-desktop" didn't pull all the needed
packages as I already have Kubuntu 15.10, all the needed packages were kept on
hold to avoid incoherencies. I had to run more than once "apt-get -y install"
with those held back packages (the package list was too long), then run
"apt-get upgrade" and finally the usual "apt-get -y autoremove" and "apt-get -y
clean" in order to try to get a "clean" upgrade.
