Sure, but it's not important (yet)

The issue arose when I tried to use a copr repository with Mesa 10.1, and I 
saw that libxcb 1.10 was a requirement. The repo provided a «libxcb0-compat» 
package with libxcb 1.9.1, but that solution bricked all my Qt 5 programs, due 
to symbol conflicts. 

Why did I do that? I read that Fedora was changing the Mesa updating policy 
for F20. Now Mesa upgrades to feature releases are allowed, because they are 
like kernel drivers (Mesa upgrades enable new functionality, fix bugs, and 
contain very few bugs themselves). The relevant FESCo ticket is here.

If Fedora 20 begins to require libxcb 1.10, a rebuild of all the KDE and Qt 
stack will be needed. But there is nothing to worry about by now. This is 
going to be a huge problem when the update comes out, however, so, I think the 
KDE SIG should make plans in advance.
