Is this fix backportable to the 5.8 branch?
NO! The fix is for a regression introduced with 5.10.3.
The bug referenced mentions that the issue was seen in 5.8 and 5.9,
that's why I'm asking.
That's just what the user said. It is wrong.
If there are changes which can be backported we will do. Please do not
cherry pick changes, that makes it impossible for us to ensure the
quality or investigate bugs.
That's not what I was trying to do here.
With my Debian hat on, Plasma LTS is what I'm trying to keep in the
stable release, for components not under a LTS release cherry picking
might be our only option, though.
Then there is no need to ask, we will backport the changes which make
sense. Bugfixes are dangerous as this issue here shows.
Cheers
Martin
