--- Comment #84 from Sebastian Kügler <se...@kde.org> --- @andreas.sturmlechner Seems tricky. There is a whole range of fixes that I've done in libkscreen, the kscreen kcm and the kded module. While they all fix individual issues, backporting them isn't quite trivial. Also, there's a more intrusive change in plasmashell (plasma-workspace/shell) that fixes plasma's dealing with esp. screen changes (this is the series of bugs that make plasma not render the right containments on a given screen, including panels). To get a really useful combination, these need to go hand in hand, so you'd have to backport patch series for at least 3 repositories to make it actually useful. At that point, you're running a Frankenstein Plasma out of 5.7 and 5.8, which nobody has tested and we certainly can't guarantee to have working. If you're doing this work for a distro, I'd actually recommend spending that time and work on making sure Plasma 5.8 becomes available as soon as possible (we've already reduced the length of this release cycle by two weeks), and perhaps get our upcoming beta packaged as well to give us a bit more testing so we can iron out problems or regressions that may have been introduced and need catching before 5.8.0. If you really really really want, you could try picking libkscreen and kscreen from git master. That will still leave you with problems in plasmashell, which from a quick look at the git changes, seem quite untrivial to backport. I'm sorry I can't be of much use here... -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
