Hi Sascha,
Good catch :)

Yes, I have started to move things to be based on KR47 (KDE:Release:47,
currently containing 4.7.0), because we don't want to depend on unstable
forever.
I've also added a build on top of KR47, which seems to work. (Got some testing
done already, but not on a clean install. This means we can remove the
KDE:Unstable:SC build, and pull package updates out of KR47.
It also means that some packages, which we've branched out of KDE:Unstable:SC
should now be a branch of KR47. The packages you've noticed have that already,
others need converting. Question: Is it possible to change a link? Or do we
have to remove packge, branch package anew and then reapply our changes?
Cheers,
