Upstream tarballs released as part of "Plasma 5" are different from tarballs released in KDE 4. This happened due to upstream splitting applications and libraries into many git repositories, each containing a specific application or library, rather than having large repositories with groups (like kde-workspace). It is desired that Fedora packages all applications and libraries independently, following the new upstream release scheme.

This document describes steps needed to be done by the KDE SIG and respective maintainers of various KDE packages shippedin Fedora to ensure smooth update from KDE 4 to Plasma 5 for users.

The update should happen in a few phases, each of them documented below.

Phase 1: Split existing KDE 4 packages

Upstream tarballs released as part of "Plasma 5" are different from tarballs released in KDE 4. This happened due to upstream splitting applications and libraries into many git repositories, each containing a specific application or library, rather than having large repositories with groups (like kde-workspace). It is desired that Fedora packages all applications and libraries independently, following the new upstream release scheme. This requires handling lots of Conflits/Provides/Obsoletes that can sometimes get complicated due to the reorganization.

So in the first stage, the existing KDE 4 packages should be split into subpackages following naming of Plasma 5 releases as closely as possible: an example being creating kwin subpackage of kde-workspace. This will make it easier to simply update from kwin-4.11.14 to kwin-5.X.Y (as an independend package) without having to deal with Obsoletes in the new kwin-5.X.Y package.

Proposed splits:

kde-runtime

  • kde-cli-tools
    • %{_kde4_bindir}/kcmshell4
    • %{_kde4_bindir}/kde-cp
    • %{_kde4_bindir}/kde-mv
    • %{_kde4_bindir}/kde-open
    • %{_kde4_bindir}/keditfiletype
    • %{_kde4_bindir}/kioclient
    • %{_kde4_bindir}/kmimetypefinder
    • %{_kde4_bindir}/ktraderclient
    • %{_kde4_libexecdir}/kdeeject
    • %{_kde4_libexecdir}/kdesu
  • kio-extras (?)
    • %{_kde4_libdir}/kde4/kio_*.so
  • khelpcenter - done

kde-workspace

  • kmenuedit
  • khotkeys
  • kinfocenter
  • systemsettings
  • kwrited
  • powerdevil
  • ksysguard-libs - done
  • ksysguardd - done
  • kwin - done
  • kde-style-oxygen - done

kde-workspace = plasma-desktop + plasma-workspace? or kde-workspace = plasma-workspace kde-plasma-desktop = plasma-desktop (helper utils, KCMs, ...)
