As discuccsed in Plasma meeting and just now with KDE gear release
spods, Plasma would like to take over releases of print-manager

Isn't this going to cause distributions all sorts of pain as package
managers are going to assume 23.08 > 5.80 and refuse to update?
Fedora has an epoch variable to cater for situations like this. I
imagine most other distributions have something similar.
The 23.08 would be upgraded to 1:5.80.x.
Any issues?
