Compare difference between meta package and one-by-one packag install
is there a way I can compare what packages am I missing if I installed KDE5 package-by-package instead of using the meta package?
I already found that I'm missing kio-extras and I'm wondering what else am I missing.

Just run the command to install the meta package and see what pacman wants to install.

It says it will install "plasma-meta", which is not really helpful
Any other ideas?

You're doing it wrong. The last step before you press y to start the installation will show you all the packages, not the metas.

Since you don't prepend LANG=C to make your output understandable for non-Spanish speakers, this either means, that - yes - no packages from plasma-meta are missing or that some forces have occupied your region while a guy called espacio is having a wild night in the clubs dancing to old music.
