Hello. Maxy prepared Plasma 5.8.6 or at leasts parts of it and aims at uploading it to unstable. It may take a while, cause each source package needs an unblock request.
But I see at least plasma-pa (Pulseaudio) and plasma-nm (Network Manager) coming in today. So we will receive some bug fixes in time for Stretch. Also I have seen kscreen already, but it is not yet available in the repo I use. I am actually really quite happy. Also regarding extra applications. Krita 3.1.1 is quite current, Digikam 5.3.0 is quite current. Only current KDEPIM versions didnĀ“t make it. I intend to stay with Sid anyway. Thank you for the great work, Debian Qt/KDE team! Ciao, -- Martin
