====
-This is KDE 5_15.06 for Slackware, consisting of the KDE Frameworks 5.10.0,
-Plasma 5.3.1 and Applications 15.04.2. Compared to my KDE 5_15.05 the only
-updates are the new set of Applications packages. This includes LTS
-(Long Term Support) updates for kdelibs, kdepimlibs, kdepim, kdepim-runtime
-and kde-workspace.
-One package is new:
-- kde4-extragear/kdeconnect4 contains the essentials of the KDE4 based
- kdeconnect-kde which will allow you to access your Android device with the
- (also still KDE4 based) Dolphin. This package therefore fixes the errors
- you would get if you tried to access your Android device in Plasma 5.
-One package has been modified:
-- kde4/kactivities, the KDE4 based version, no longer contains the
- kactivitymanagerd binary.
- The same daemon in the kactivities-framework works fine with the KDE4 based
- activities libraries. When installing all my KDE5 packages in one massive
- upgrade, the kactivities package would get installed after the
- kactivities-framework package and the KDE4 based kactivitymanagerd would
- overwrite the Frameworks version, causing serious desktop crashes.
