We have a frameworks and Plasma release schedule issue again.
We have new API (Package::fileUrl literally everwhere and I have
something minor in kwin) that requires frameworks 5.42
This frameworks release comes out on the 6th of Jan.
The beta comes out on the 4th.
We cannot make a release that depends on unreleased code.
The release schedule does explicitly say "depends on frameworks 5.41"
and it's my fault for not noticing that when reviewing.
Last kickoff meeting we agreed that a beta should always be just after
a frameworks release (see kickoff 5.11 notes) after the last time N
times this happened, so I'm not sure how we ended up with those dates
chosen.
For now options are:
- revert that change and #ifdef use of appmenu protocol in kwin
- delay our beta release for a few days (tagging and tarballs can
still happen on the scheduled day)
Personally I'd favour option 2.
Personally I'd also favour option 2. I'm hoping for landing the
xdg_wm_base (xdg shell stable) in time for frameworks release and Plasma
beta.
