Hi,
it's becoming increasingly clear from feedback that we didn't think the decision to ship KF5 apps in 14.12 through very well. Distros are currently rolling it out as an upgrade to KDE 4 systems over the last 4.x apps, and users are running into the following problems: * KF5-based apps don't pick up visual settings from KDE 4 and can't be configured because System Settings 5 is usually not co-installable. I believe this needs to be addressed in the QPA plugin we ship with Frameworks and have added a new BKO product for the plugin as well as opened a ticket: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=343336 * Some apps apparently don't use the support class to migrate the app config file to the fd.o location, which means from the user POV they lose all settings for the app. Here we need to go through every app and check and fix it, and make sure we don't ship anything without that QA check again on future ports. I cross-posted this to k-c-d and r-t for visibility - I suggest we discuss the Frameworks side on k-c-d and the release QA side on r-t.
