KDE Workspaces 4.11 has reached end of life in Portage. Upstream dropped |
| 42 |
support in 2015-08-19, no security bugs have been fixed since then. It is |
| 43 |
therefore required for all users to upgrade to KDE Plasma 5. |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
KDM is being removed as well. Upstream recommends x11-misc/sddm instead which |
| 46 |
is pulled in by plasma-meta by default. |
| 47 |
OpenRC users edit /etc/conf.d/xdm and update DISPLAYMANAGER. |
| 48 |
Systemd users run: systemctl reenable sddm.service |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
Part of the cleanup will also be the KDE desktop profile, which is superseded |
| 51 |
by the Plasma desktop profile. Please follow the detailed upgrade guide.[1] |
| 52 |
|
| 53 |
KDE Workspaces 4.11 packages will be moved to kde-sunset overlay.[2] |
