Thanks for letting us know. What exact command did you use? I already installed KDE Frameworks 5.79 from Experimental on top of Devuan Ceres – which is basically very similar to Debian Sid, just without Systemd by default without having to deal with some… uncooperative Debian maintainers (none from the Debian Qt/KDE team, midn you). However… I am certainly do not like to use the approach Sedat used initially, which is: RELEASE="experimental" ; LC_ALL=C apt-get dist-upgrade -V -t $RELEASE Cause it would upgrade too much. I instead did so with meta packages for Plasma, yet it still pulled libglib from experimental and things did not work as expected, maybe due to a partial upgrade of Plasma packages. Back then I downgraded everything to 5.20 again and reverted all the other package upgrades to Debian experimental as well. So I would like to just install Plasma 5.21.1 from experimental, but that complete, without upgrading unrelated packages to experimental as well. Any aptitude / apt foo magic recommendation? Otherwise I try to come up with something myself. Best, -- Martin
