KDE 6 + Wayland : it works or not ?

[Mario Marietto]

---> You should not install any plasma5 components that are not pulled in
by plasma6 -- they conflict, as they are both the KDE Desktop... and
therefore share files and services :) -- so stick to one version.

We can't stick to one version if plasma5 and plasma6 components conflict.
You are contradicting yourself.

If there are no conflicts, the output by :

diff -u -p -N /usr/ports/x11-wm/plasma5-kwin/pkg-plist
/usr/ports/x11-wm/plasma6-kwin/pkg-plist

should not have lines started with a single space. Single space of unified
diffs on top of lines means it's common with 2 files compared.

There are many common lines such as:

@@ -1,49 +1,275 @@ bin/kwin_x11
bin/kwin_wayland
bin/kwin_wayland_wrapper
bin/kwin_x11
-include/kwin_export.h
-include/kwinanimationeffect.h

The "-" at the top of lines means it appears on the first file but not on
the second.

Edit: Quote functionality does not do its work as intended. [image: :(]There
should be a single space before bin/kwin_wayland, bin/kwin_wayland_wrapper
and bin/kwin_x11 in the quoted example above.
