--- Comment #2 from Nate Graham <n...@kde.org> ---
There is no such thing as a KDE version; KDE is the name of the whole
community, not a desktop environment. This branding change was made 13 years
ago; see https://dot.kde.org/2009/11/24/repositioning-kde-brand. The "About
KDE" menu opens a window that talks about KDE the community, not KDE the
desktop environment, because no such product has existed for over a decade. :)
KDE (the community) makes Plasma, which has been the name of the desktop
environment formerly known as KDE for these past 13 years. Its version can be
found on the command-line using `plasmashell --version` and I don't believe
this has changed in at least 8 years. The Info Center app also clearly shows
you the Plasma version on its main page.
Kate is a standalone app so it has its own version number and release cycle;
it's not tied to Plasma in any way. You can run it on GNOME, ElementaryOS, or
wherever. Even Windows these days!
kf5-config is a part of KDE frameworks, which is still another product--a
collection of re-usable libraries that are usable by apps, Plasma, and any
3rd-parties as well. It has a monthly release schedule. In general, the KDE
Frameworks version is not something the average user needs to care much about
unless they're reporting a bug.
