Hello!

tldr: Is Kf5 being removed before trixie is released?

First of all, thanks for all the amazing work getting Plasma 6
into testing.  I'm trying to make sure that some less-used KDE
packages don't get passed over by putting in some of the legwork.

In particular, I'm trying to make sure that kbibtex (a LaTeX
bibliography manager) makes it into trixie.  My concern is
that Kf5 may be removed from trixie.  I feel like I read this
somewhere, but I cannot find anything authoritative.

If so, I'd appreciate any input on my attempt to get a Kf6
version of it into Debian [1].  The issue is that kbibtex is
mature software, and hasn't seen a release for over a year.
That release is already in Debian but does not build against
QT6/Kf6.  Git master does, and I've built a local package that
seems to work (but honestly needs more testing given my
somewhat random choice of development snapshot).  I was hoping
to get this maybe into experimental for a bit, and then into
testing right before the freeze.

Best,
Antonio Russo
