Can we at least have a way to keep using KDE 4 while it go in an unmaintained state?
FWIW, I do maintain a repo with Plasma5 and KF5-based applications (since August actually) that can be co-installed side-by-side with the KDE4 counterparts. I do plan to add KDE4 packages to that repo as they get removed from Tumbleweed. Personally I don't really see a point in keeping the unmaintained KDE4 applications as you can run the KF5-based ones in KDE4 as well, but there might be reasons why one would want to use them: - no need to install additional KF5 packages - ServiceMenus and Solid actions are installed to different folders, so ones from KDE4 based packages do not show up in Plasma5 and vice-versa. Here's the URL, I'd recommend to give it a higher priority (lower priority number) than the standard repo: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/wolfi323:/branches:/KDE:/Fra... As mentioned, this repo also allows for installing Plasma5 and KDE4 side-by- side and choosing between them on the login screen. Just install plasma5- session from my repo to get a basic Plasma5 desktop without replacing KDE4. I have no idea yet how zypper will behave when the Plasma 5.3 packages (that obsolete KDE4) will be in Tumbleweed though. A quick test in VirtualBox (adding KDE:Frameworks5 and my repo to a standard Tumbleweed install and then running "zypper dup") showed that "zypper dup" still wanted to replace the KDE4 desktop with Plasma5. So you might have to lock the plasma5 packages (plasma5-session should suffice I think) to prevent them from being installed.
