Release, pretty please?

[Jonathan Riddell]

I don't think there's any reason why this should be necessary for
distros.  A simple message to say "don't build krita from Calligra,
build it from the standalone krita 3 now" should be enough.  Of course
a Calligra 3 ported to KF5 would also focus attention.
