Status
------

This change has been discarded.


Review request for KDE Frameworks and Plasma.


Repository: plasma-framework


Description
-------

This patch set does the following:

* tidy up the data engine plugin loading code
* make PackageStructure plugins use the json method as with DataEngines
* remove ShellPackage; it moves to live with plasmashell (review #119989)

The goal here is to get rid of the plasmaquick library as much as possible. It was unnecessary in the first place since PackageStructure supports plugins. The only potentially controversial change here is to move PackageStructure to use the json-based plugin loading. That seems to be the more modern approach, but plugin loading in libplasma is currently a mix of the old and the new. As PackageStructure changed API in plasma-framework, meaning any existing plugins from 4.x would need updating anyways, this seems a safe enough change to make as it should impact exactly zero plugins out there currently.
