[opensuse-kde] Changes in the KDE repositories due to the upcoming move to Plasma 5 as default desktop in Tumbleweed
As part of the preparations for the move to Plasma 5 as the new default desktop in Tumbleweed, we also had a look at the available KDE repositories on openSUSE Build Service. In the last few days we have been reorganizing them to reflect the new situation which will follow the new upstream structure (Frameworks, Plasma and Applications). We have updated our wiki page to reflect the new setup, which will become in effect sometime tomorrow (1 May). All repo's are already there, but some cleanup might be required. The main changes are in the KDE:Unstable repositories where we moved to a similtar setup as the main repositories (Frameworks/Plasma, Applications, Extra). A number of packages will therefor move from KDE:Unstable:Extra to KDE:Unstable:Applications. Also here the suffix "5" for KDE Applications packages will be removed (e.g. kate5 -> kate). Users that are using currently Framework based applications from KDE:Unstable:Extra are adviced to use zypper dup when moving to the new KDE:Applications. If you find any breakage caused by this switch, please let us know so that we can fix those.
