quoting Jonathan Callan from a rpely in a different thread earlier today: |
39 |
|
40 |
"Some packages in KDE Applications have been ported to use the new KDE |
41 |
Frameworks 5 libraries. Those packages are in slot :5. Other |
42 |
packages have not yet (or had not yet) been updated, and still link |
43 |
against kdelibs:4. Those packages are in slot :4. We are simply |
44 |
following upstream in the versioning scheme (with regards to |
45 |
everything being "15.12" for the December release, or "15.08" for the |
46 |
October release). |
47 |
|
48 |
Note that upstream split the old "KDE Software Compilation" (formerly |
49 |
"KDE Desktop Environment") into three separate parts: KDE Frameworks, |
50 |
Plasma, and KDE Applications." |
