Well, you could install any other of the many desktop environments that are available.
Except KDE4, which isn't. Is there an alternative DE that uses kwin, but not Plasma 5?
You should even be able to install KDE4 again, the packages are still in the repo.
Not in Tumbleweed, it would seem: S | Name | Type | Version | Arch | Repository --+--------------------------------------+---------+-------------+--------+------------------ i | kdebase4-libkonq | package | 14.12.3-1.1 | x86_64 | (System Packages) i | kdebase4-nsplugin | package | 14.12.3-1.1 | x86_64 | (System Packages) i | kdebase4-openSUSE | package | 13.2-6.63 | x86_64 | Tumbleweed-OSS i | kdebase4-runtime | package | 14.12.3-1.1 | x86_64 | (System Packages) i | kdebase4-runtime-branding-openSUSE | package | 13.2-6.63 | x86_64 | Tumbleweed-OSS i | kdebase4-workspace | package | 4.11.17-2.1 | x86_64 | (System Packages) i | kdebase4-workspace-addons | package | 4.11.17-2.1 | x86_64 | (System Packages) i | kdebase4-workspace-branding-openSUSE | package | 13.2-6.63 | x86_64 | Tumbleweed-OSS i | kdebase4-workspace-ksysguardd | package | 4.11.17-2.1 | x86_64 | (System Packages) i | kdebase4-workspace-liboxygenstyle | package | 4.11.17-2.1 | x86_64 | (System Packages) i | kdebase4-workspace-libs | package | 4.11.17-2.1 | x86_64 | (System Packages) i | kdebase4-workspace-plasma-calendar | package | 4.11.17-2.1 | x86_64 | (System Packages) i | python-kdebase4 | package | 4.11.17-2.1 | x86_64 | (System Packages) i | kdebase4-session | package | 4.12-5.1 | noarch | Tumbleweed-OSS
Of course you shouldn't update in this case as they will be replaced by Plasma5 again.
It would've really helped if somebody just said what packages to lock until I'm ready to make the switch. As it is I can't update anything before I've made sure that Plasma 5 will work for me. An attempt to update produces conflicts for plasma-nm-* packages, BTW.
