Ok, had a question, found an answer by googling, was going to save this as a draft and maybe put a copy on askRhk, but I decided to post it to the list in case it helps anyone else.
My puzzlement and the answer (afaict): I started to see version numbers for KDE apps very different from what I am used to. I found out that (at least apparently) KDE has changed their version numbering scheme. (It now looks like (at least to me, at a quick glance) like the version numbers used by (K)ubuntu but I'm not sure whether the scheme is the same or not -- I'd tend to bet that it is. I guess I've resolved my puzzlement. A link: * [[https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=265&t=129043][newbie question about version numbers]] ` To my limited knowledge the Kdenlive developers adopted a new versioning scheme when they ported Kdenlive to the recent KDE Framework 5 (KF5). They are following the versioning scheme adopted by the KDE Project, in particular, YY.MM.p. YY is the year of the release. MM the month. Typically, there are only few major releases, two this year so far: 15.04 in April, 15.08 in August. These releases should being follow the KF5 releases, as Kdenlive is now part of the KDE 5 Applications. The third number p then indicates the patchlevel releases, that is, bug fix releases that happen from time to tome in between the larger KDE Applications releases.

(I think I asked a similar question before but, unless I missed something, I got no response.) Some data points (or not): * In my mind, 19.08 looks like a (K)Ubuntu version number * The most recent version of Debian that I actually use is Jessie, my daily user is Wheezy (I know), but in which konsole is: <quote> Version 2.8.4 Using KDE Development Platform 4.8.4 (4.8.4) </quote> On Jessie, it is 2.14.2 on 4.14.2 Have the KDE numbers really jumped to something like 19.08? (I looked up the bug listed in the previous email in this thread (the one to which I am replying) which was: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=935031 There, I see: Found in version konsole/4:19.08.0-1
