Public bug reported: SRU tracking bug for KDE's Plasma 5.12.7 LTS for bionic
Official release announcement by the KDE community: https://www.kde.org/announcements/plasma-5.12.7.php Complete changelog (excludes translation updates): https://www.kde.org/announcements/plasma-5.12.6-5.12.7-changelog.php [Impact] * Without this update, general users who are not inclined or able to add our backports/update ppa will not receive this bugfix release of the Plasma 5.12 LTS series * Providing this bugfix release via the official update pocket in the archive will ensure that the bugfixes here reach and benefit most of our users. This is particularly important for a Kubuntu and Plasma LTS release [Test Case] * General tests: - Does plasma desktop start as normal with no apparent regressions over 5.12.6? - General workflow - testers should carry out their normal tasks, using the plasma features they normally do, and test common subsystems such as audio, settings changes, compositing, desktop affects, suspend etc. * Specific tests: - Check the changelog: https://www.kde.org/announcements/plasma-5.12.6-5.12.7-changelog.php - Identify items with front/user facing changes capable of specific testing. e.g. "Fix scrollbars in LibreOffice." - Test the 'fixed' functionality. [Regression Potential] * These updates fix some obvious front facing issues, but also include some underlying code fixes. - e.g. changes for compilation under Qt versions we do not ship yet, code optimizations and fixes with less obvious explanation of impact in the changelog, * Fixes for obvious and testable bugs and regressions can also introduce unintended other regressions in either the feature/app being fixed, or desktop components or subsystems that interact with it. So it is important in these updates to consider: * General testing - does the desktop as a whole, and routine use of such work as previously with no obvious regressions over the previous release. * If there is say a fix for the audio applet to fix one issue, in addition to fixing that issue, do the other common features of that app still work as before, do the general audio settings still work? [Other Info] * Packages not listed in the upstream changelog either have a 0-diff or just translation updates, Those with translation updates have been included in this SRU. * However, we deliberately versioned depends and build depends, so that if accepting rebuilt small diff packages into the final release to the updates pocket is considered too much of a regression potential, or too difficult to validate, packages that have not introduced or require a dependency (internal or external) on 5.12.7 version, should be able to be abandoned from consideration and the SRU. ** Affects: plasma-desktop (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to plasma-desktop in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1794494 Title: SRU tracking bug for KDE's Plasma 5.12.7 for bionic To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plasma-desktop/+bug/1794494/+subscriptions -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
