They indeed have been in the past. And openSUSE has done a great job overall, any issues I had were fixed by some fiddling around or within a short time (other than the fact that I can't get auto-setting of DNS/resolv.conf to work so I can't use VPN on this machine and need to use the laptop any time I need VPN).
But now they have broken things that I rely on heavily, and as I spend
And about which KDE team are we actually talking about ??
60+ hours a week in front of this computer and I depend on IRC (Hexchat) heavily for work, breaking its tray icon is something I can't live with
Well, the tray icon would break anyway and maybe even while running Gnome. The Xembed system trays are not working under Wayland and it seems that the major desktops are moving towards Wayland. I believe Gnome can already run under native Wayland and also Plasma 5 should be able to do this with version 5.4. As I noticed you already raised this issue with upstream of Hexchat and they seem reluctant to start supporting this new method, which would cause only more issues in the future. Also hexchat is not a package that is provided by openSUSE.
as I am required to react to pings on IRC fast. And losing session restore would mean a big hassle every morning and me being grumpy every day I start work.
If you need a systray option for hexchat, then maybe you should try wmsystemtray. This is a small program that lives on the desktop and provides an xembed systemtray for those programs that can not use the statusnotifyer one. Just search on OBS to find it.
I don't have the time for that, I already have a 45h-per-week IT job. But thanks for pissing me off even more.
And of course the openSUSE KDE community team does not have a fulltime job and they are just there to wait for problems of openSUSE users and fix them. Thanks for pissing me off big time !! You should keep in mind that we are all volunteers that are working just for fun and trying to create a great distribution. The community team also has full time jobs and we are using our spare time (which we could spend with our families, etc) just to keep the KDE packages in the right shape, trying to work together with upstream to fix issues, etc. So if you do not have time, because of your job, what about us ??? Maybe next time, just keep in mind that we are all just VOLUNTEERS with a FULL-TIME job as well.
