Hi packagers, I'm happy to let you know that we have just published a new release of KDE Connect [1], version 1.2
Also, I wanted to use this email to make a note about the dependencies of KDE Connect. Currently, on some distros (eg: Debian [2]), the KDE Connect package depends on 'plasma-workspace'. This dependency is not needed for anything in KDE Connect, and it might discourage users from other desktops from installing it, as it brings a huge dependency tree with it. It is true that the GUI we ship with the kdeconnect package is a plasmoid, but the user is free to install another frontend (there are several available for Gnome and Elementary OS), or use the command line tool and just not use the plasmoid. So, if you are packaging KDE Connect for any distro, it would be awesome if you make sure plasma-workspace is not listed as a dependency of your package. Thanks a lot!
