New Tars

  • ocean-sound-theme

Tars Moved From Frameworks

These will now follow the Plasma releases and version numbers

  • kactivities
  • kactivities-stats
  • plasma-framework
  • kwayland

Tars Moved From KDE Gear

These need to be re-versioned to the lower 6.0

  • print-manager
  • wacomtable

Dropped Tars

  • khotkeys
  • plasma-bigscreen
  • plank-player
  • aura-browser
  • plasma-remotecontrollers

We would welcome maintenance of Plasma Bigscreen to port it to Qt 6

Qt 5 only

  • kwayland-integration remains Qt 5 only as its features have been moved into kwindowsystem, this is still released and should still be packaged for compatibility with Qt 5 apps.

Dependencies which need new versions

KDE bits

  • Phonon and Phonon-vlc - needs Phonon 4.12 and Phonon-vlc 0.1 which build for both Qt 5 and 6 at the same time
  • libqaccessibilityclient - needs 0.5.0 for Qt 6 (Qt 5 builds can be dropped)
  • kuserfeedback - needs 1.3.0 built for Qt 6 (and Qt 5 if you want it for Ruqola)
  • kirigami-addons - needs 0.11.75 built for Qt 6
  • polkit-qt-1 - needs new version built twice for Qt 5 and 6 - TODO release
  • plasma-wayland-protocols - needs new version - TODO release

External Bits

  • Appstream - needs the unreleased 1.0, get it from Git
  • libaccounts-qt, signon-ui (also called signon-qt-ui) and signond - new release needed for Qt 6 - TODO release
  • PackagekitQt - use an up to date release built for Qt 6

New Depedencies

  • xwaylandvideobridge - while not a strict dependency this allows for Screensharing Wayland apps
