I don't know the latest on those dependencies either, but it doesn't really 
matter, does it? 

The problems will be caught whenever someone tries to build the external 
plasma repo and discovers they now need another include or whatever. Then it 
just depends on how often they update/build. People working on 
frameworks/plasma are not inexperienced newbies who don't know how to fix 
minor issues like that (and I don't think we need to optimize for such 
newbies yet either). I'm sure it's fine.


Thanks,

Steve.
