KDE Frameworks 5.36.0 has been uploaded to the usual place.



New frameworks: none this time.



Public release next Saturday.



Thanks for the packaging work!


Currently, 5.36 is listed in https://download.kde.org/stable/frameworks/ but 
it gives 403 to try to access it. This is a bit of an annoyance for some of my 
scripts.


If possible, could you please add the folder only when it's published?

Happy hacking,

KDE Applications: Need someone to talk to kde-promo mailing list

2017-07-09 Thread Albert Astals Cid
I've unsubscribed from the mailing list since it brings sadness into my life.

I guess someone will need to tell kde-promo to do its job when a new KDE 
Applications release needs an announcement text, or maybe get some of them to 
join this list (if they have not, i don't know) or ideally get them to use the 
announcements calendar so they know when a new release is coming and they 
don't actually need prodding to start writing the text :)

Cheers,
  Albert

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
