No interest in bug reports of older versions of KDEPIM/Akonadi that are not older than a year anymore?

Fine, then it's your duty to backport the fixes from the 18.12 and 19.04 
branches in your packages.

and 18.12 + 19.04 were released since then. So, yes, it's obsolete. 
Backporting fixes to these old branches would most likely mean introducing 
regressions and/or build issues.

If a distribution wants to keep on providing obsolete software, it's also its 
responsibility to backport the fixes. (which is close to impossible for pim 
for various reasons).
