Some packages in KDE Applications have been ported to use the new KDE
Frameworks 5 libraries.  Those packages are in slot :5.  Other
packages have not yet (or had not yet) been updated, and still link
against kdelibs:4.  Those packages are in slot :4.  We are simply
following upstream in the versioning scheme (with regards to
everything being "15.12" for the December release, or "15.08" for the
October release).

Note that upstream split the old "KDE Software Compilation" (formerly
"KDE Desktop Environment") into three separate parts: KDE Frameworks,
Plasma, and KDE Applications.
