That is why I use F32 , instead F33 . this is a very simplistic summary KDE is not scheduled with official release , we got some discussions about that, i.e. we are on our own. I use KDE since Fedora core 1 and the major problems was that we trust in upstream , when it say that is ready and sometimes it is not . Updates form kde 3 to 4 , and 4 to plasma 5 was a disaster but mainly because upstream calls it stable when it wasn’t. > Following this list, I see that breaking updates to KDE are kind of a > regular occurrence: > https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/thread/VTO6ZCNP4MFBCSC2AQM47KLJX5C2MG4S/ > > I would guess that the component version updates mid-cycle cause the > breaking updates.
