Spectacle moved to KDE Graphics, future of KSnapshot?

[Boudhayan Gupta]

Hi all,

Spectacle has been moved to KDE Graphics.

There are a few things that need to be done for a smooth release with
Applications 15.12. I'll list them below:

1. Inclusion into the list of applications released as part of KDE
Applications. I believe I'll have to trouble Albert for that?

2. Icon. I've filed a Breeze bug at
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=353126 to symlink the ksnapshot
icon to spectacle. Should I do the same for Oxygen?

3. KHotkeys. Once Spectacle is included into Applications 15.12, I'll
patch KHotkeys to look for Spectacle rather than KSnapshot.

Now, what'll come of KSnapshot? Spectacle clearly obsoletes KSnapshot
on X11 (and Wayland as long as KWin is running - if a generic Wayland
protocol isn't out by dependency freeze I'll add a generic KWin
backend temporarily for this release). However, we have no Mac OS and
Windows backends, so KSnapshot clearly still has use in those
platforms.

What about moving KSnapshot to Extragear?

Cheers,
