Hello all, As we are getting ready to push the new KDE Plasma 6.8 update to stable branches per the KDE software updates policy, we (as-in, the KDE SIG) wanted to let everybody know that, as-of 6.8, the x11 components are no longer be released by upstream and are thus obsolete.
The KDE SIG has stopped providing the x11 components when Fedora 40 was released (See: <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/KDE_Plasma_6>). Despite the X11 subcomponents no longer being supported by the KDE SIG, an independent maintainer was offering those separately. These components remained deprecated in Fedora and were unsupported by the KDE SIG and now Plasma 6.8 no longer has the code for these components, so the Plasma 6.8 update will obsolete them on upgrade. For users of the x11 components, we recommend you run `dnf offline-upgrade` or use Discover, as the update may break the system otherwise. As a reminder, KDE Plasma updates are covered by an existing update policy exception.
