+Upgrading from the previous 5_16.02 should be straight-forward.
+KDE-5_16.03 is meant only to be installed on top of Slackware -current and
it will *replace* any version of KDE 4 you might have installed!
What is the NEWS in this batch of updates:
-- Frameworks 5.19.0 is an enhancement release.
+- Frameworks 5.20.0 is an enhancement release without new frameworks.
See https://www.kde.org/announcements/kde-frameworks-5.19.0.php
-- Plasma 5.5.4 is a bugfix release of the 5.5 series; I added these packages
- as an incremental update to ktown a couple of weeks ago.
- See https://www.kde.org/announcements/plasma-5.5.4.php .
-- Applications 15.12.2 provides stability updates for the 15.12 release, see
- https://www.kde.org/announcements/announce-applications-15.12.2.php
- * I re-added the 'kjots' package which used to be part of KDEPIM and was
- released recently as a new separate tarball.
- * I also added 'ktp-call-ui' which is scheduled to be included with
- KDE Telepathy 16.04.x. This is the missing GUI for voice & video chat
- in telepathy. I used a git source snapshot to give you guys a preview.
-All in all, nothing spectacular. Hopefully just a more stable and pleasant
-experience all around.
+- Plasma 5.5.5 is the last release of the 5.5 series; since there is an
+ interdependency between development of Frameworks and Plasma, two packages
+ were added as 'plasma-extra' to cover for the period after release of
+ Frameworks 5.20.0 and Plasma 5.6.0: kactivities-workspace and
+ kactivitymanagerd. Their content will be split into Frameworks 5.21.0 and
+ Plasma 5.6 so the two packages will be removed from the 'ktown' repository
+ in the next round.
+ See https://www.kde.org/announcements/plasma-5.5.5.php .
+- Applications 15.12.3 provides stability updates for the 15.12 release, see
+ https://www.kde.org/announcements/announce-applications-15.12.3.php
