Hello again!

Just a quick note that reviving the Debian package may /not/ need much
more than…

  1. Dropping the existing patches

https://github.com/j6t/kdbg/commit/11c48e4c4aaa9365208a9d2688830e2d5aee308e

  2. Updating the package dependencies for Qt 5 and KDE 4

https://github.com/j6t/kdbg/commit/1aa87d26a432b6dffc935f69e5a67c0463a773d7

…on Debian side in practice.  At least that made the old 2.5.5-3
packaging build with Git `master`.

Pull request https://github.com/j6t/kdbg/pull/37 would be the full picture with more details if interested.

Asking regular users to download and install CI-built guerilla Debian
packages built by upstream CI is not ideal though, in particular because
it teaches users that installing unofficial .deb files by random third
parties using sudo is okay and safe, but with my security hat on I'd
rather want users to twice twice about that minimum.

Any chance we could get flip the live switch on official KDBG Debian
packaging?  I truly believe it can be a low-cost project, realistically.
Anyone?

Thanks and best



Sebastian
