Fwd: KActivities repository split

[Ivan Čukić]

Most of the distros already separated the library from the rest as far
as the packages go (at least, that was my impression).

So, if the packages were split into:

 - library + qml imports
 - kactivitymanagerd
 - other things

there should be no problems. plasma 5.6 would depend only on the
library and kactivitymanagerd while other things would not be needed.

For example (with fake package names):
 plasma 5.5 - depends on kactivities/everything
 plasma 5.6 - depends on kactivities/framework+qml,
kactivities/kactivitymanagerd, obsoleting kactivities/everything-else

> we then lose kio plugins

Yes, this has not yet passed the review - it is scheduled to be moved
to kio-extras. I've just pinged the reviewers again.

> Or we should avoid packaging 5.6 until we have KF 5.20.0?

This is one possibility - kf5.20 is going to be released before plasma
5.6. But I don't thing it is necessary.

Cheerio,
Ivan
