Why don't we store plugin metadata in JSON files? Look how they're used for KDevelop: https://svn.reviewboard.kde.org/r/7126/ I'm afraid that if we keep this patch and it gets released, but then we realize that X-KDE-FormFactor is not necessary in .desktop (e.g. we only have it in plugins that all use .json), afterwards we'll have to support X-KDE-FormFactor in kcoreaddons until the end of the KF5.x series. 5.12 is tagging tomorrow ;) - Alexander Potashev On Июнь 29, 2015, 10:44 п.п., Sebastian Kügler wrote: > > ----------------------------------------------------------- > This is an automatically generated e-mail.
