Comment (by bdubbs@…):
This is a problem with upstream. They use the same names, but most newer
versions do not build on a KDE4 system. The packages in Chapter 33, KDE
Frameworks 5 Based Applications do need to be updated, but the other 15.12
versions are not appropriate for what we have for KDE4.
Personally I wish they would use names like konsole5 instead of konsole
for the kf5 only versions.
I'll note that I have both versions of konsole on my system. They both
run fine, but the only difference I can see is when I run Help->About
Konsole or run ldd against the binaries to see what libraries are used.
Occasionally I have found packages that build in both kde4 and kf5
environments, but I do not think it is worth the effort to check every
package, especially since we plan on dropping kde4 after the next BLFS
stable release.
