Issue with icons in KF5 based applications launched via ssh
Hi, After upgrading my remote host from KDE 4 to KDE Plasma 5 I have faced with strange behavior of programs built with KF5: all of them lose icons in menus, toolbars and other widgets when you connect via ssh 'ssh -X ...' and launch them in usual way. All applications based on KDE4 libs and Qt4, on pure Qt5, on Gtk+ 2.x and Gtk+ 3.x look fine. Any idea which is wrong in KF5 libraries and how it could be fixed? If bug report is required, which package it should point to? Best regards, Boris

plasma-systray-legacy package is currently available in Debian unstable
Hi Debian and Ubuntu KDE users, Thanks a lot to David Edmundson who began xembed-sni-proxy project [1]. This program allows users of KDE Plasma 5 to use applications which supports only legacy system tray icons as simple as applications which support the SNI specification. xembed-sni-proxy is currently available in Debian unstable in the package plasma-systray-legacy [2]. Probably it is too late to add this package into official Ubuntu archive before Ubuntu Wily is released [3]. But users of Ubuntu Vivid and Ubuntu Wily may install this package from a special PPA [4]. I hope it should simplify the migration from KDE 4 to KDE Plasma 5 for usual users who don't know the difference between legacy system tray protocol (XEmbed) and new StatusNotifierItem specification, but who might be disappointed when some of programs will suddenly disappear from a "system tray" area after update of their system. If you have some issues with this program please report bugs at [5].

Current version of Psi+ OMEMO plugin in Debian supports all necessary features: * e2e encryption in private chats * e2e encryption in group chats (all members of group chats should have enabled OMEMO plugins in their XMPP clients) * e2e encryption of files uploaded to XMPP server using HTTP Upload Plugin * etc. It is comprehensive tested with Gajim and Conversations. Please check: 1) Have you tried to restart application after enabling of OMEMO plugin? 2) Do you have OMEMO buttons on toolbars in chat windows? If not you may enable them in Psi+ Options dialog in Toolbars section. 3) In some rare cases you may face with broken databases. Try to remove files: ~/.local/share/psi+/profiles/default/omemo-*.sqlite and restart Psi+. Also there is no global option to enable OMEMO encryption in all chats of Psi+: you should explicitly enable encryption in each chat manually. > dino.im works out of the box. > >> Only working (!)

Last time I have used Gajim for testing of OMEMO plugin in Psi+ it works fine. Except Gajim could not send OMEMO encrypted files to server.

Now git repos for your packages are in independent Salsa group: https://salsa.debian.org/kaidan-team and I have found them only because I was searching for kaidan mentions in Debian infrastructure.
