I'm very reluctant to pick this commit, as it is a backport from Plasma 5.9 that did not receive proper testing and already broke Plasma 5.8.7 with Qt 5.6 completely. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

You can use external repositories such as KDE:Frameworks5:LTS with Plasma 5.8.7.

Which one? The change can be reverted. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

I've had lots of problems with 42.2 - plasmashell locking up with 100% CPU, corrupted icon fonts, this issue, and kruler not remembering the options you set, just to list a few. 42.2 is suppsoed to be an LTS release and stable, but it's not rock solid like 13.2 or 13.1.

It was the previous KDE 5 release for 42.2 before the one that just happened- in February IIRC - so 5.8.6 I assume. https://www.kde.org/announcements/plasma-5.8.6.php If I roll it back, I'd assume I'd have other issues - security holes perhaps?

The state before 5.8.6 was 5.8.3 IIRC, so you'll miss all fixes between those versions. None of them are security related though.

...

You can just use KDE:Frameworks5 if it bothers you that much.

Did you report all those? I haven't ever heard about the icon fonts and kruler ones and we can only fix issues we are aware of. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1043266 http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1043266#c9 --- Comment #9 from Fred Brubine --- After I added the KDE:Frameworks5 repository, set the priority to 90 (so higher than the all the others still sitting at the default of 99), and then ran an "Online Update," nothing showed up. Even if I launched "Software Management" and looked at a specific component, such as "plasma5-desktop," where I knew there should still be a newer version, it was still not shown as available (using the standard parenthesis notation). I had to manually go to the versions tab of that component, and every component in KDE5, manually, and manually select 5.8.7 (or 5.32.0 for some components), in order to perform the upgrade. The first few times I thought I was done, I didn't get them all and my desktop was broken. Is it supposed to be that difficult? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

...

Not if you use KDE:Frameworks5:LTS as instructed on the wiki: https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:KDE_repositories#Long-Term- Support_Frameworks_and_Plasma That link was exactly what I was looking at when I added the 5.8.7 repository, and I did not see any warning there that I couldn't use Yast.

...

Note that you need to use zypper dup --from <repo> to install it, the updater applet does not handle vendor changes and doing it manually is error-prone. OK, but I wasn't using the "updater applet" if by that you mean the tool that you can launch from the task manager. I tried with Yast, using both "Online Update" and "Software Management" - neither would recognize the newer version(s).

See also: https://en.opensuse.org/SDB: Vendor_change_update#Full_repository_Vendor_change Cool. I'll try that next time.

I can't do the "vendor change" over to the KDE 5.8.7 LTS repository because then YasT tries to uninstall kdm (only supported by KDE 4?) and I want kdm for login. Not a fan of the SDDM login app - why isn't it themed green by default like OpenSUSE itself? It's a bit odd that the taskbar tool works perfectly, as it was less capable than YasT in previous OpenSUSE releases. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Looks openSUSE-themed enough to me: https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/441946#step/first_boot/1

That means you get some conflicts with a dup, those need to be resolved. Please provide the full zypper output. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
