Yes, but if we only take that into account, we wouldn't have eol at all, and we would just support every release forever. However, we have limited time and build resources, so we have to draw the line somewhere.
Exactly. KRxy is unsupported from the current point of view for "normal" releases already. Evergreen + KRxy is even more "unsupported". Evergreen AFAIU is mainly about keeping that version distro version secure, not about making it a rolling distro including KDE major release updates.
If someone wants to continue using an unsupported release, they need to be prepared to not have support for it. Otherwise eol completely loses its meaning.
It is not the kde team's job to care about evergreen and its repos. Keeping Extra, KUA etc. just building after e.g. 11.4 is eol is dangerous because they won't get any security updates. Evergreen users should stick to official repos + whatever evergreen people offer – not KDE repos. The most important distro versions currently are 12.1 and 12.2. IMHO any other distro version should only be included if those are set and ready and resources left. Whoever wants KDE 4.9 should simply update to 12.1. Raisin picking is just not on given the scarce resources. Sven -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner@opensuse.org
