CentOS is a very different beast from Fedora in this regard. The EPEL build of KDE uses the LTS version. My question is specifically about drops of new major component versions. I am trying to understand why the schedule is like this, beyond the matter of Plasma releases (as the problem I had was with Framework and not Plasma). New major component version drops are a bit of a lottery; I can well believe that for some people they always went flawlessly so far, but they are an inherent risk. If I could understand the schedule, perhaps I could come up with a mitigation strategy. -- Yours, Mikhail Ramendik Unless explicitly stated, all opinions in my mail are my own and do not reflect the views of any organization _______________________________________________ kde mailing list -- kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to kde-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
