If I remember correctly, I was able to compile KF5 digikam without too many
problems on Plasma 5 Kubuntu.

I am using Archlinux as my ultimate development machine, since it always
has the newest(and the buggiest) packages, so I don't need to compile
anything from sources. But Archlinux is quite difficult to configure for
someone who tries it for the first time. You can give it a try. Or Kubuntu
should also be good enough.
