The expected resolution is to build a reference portable binary distribution
the way closed-source packages like Adobe do that, or failing that, maybe with
a rudimentary operating system to be run within a virtual machine.  That way
everyone can get a reference version of KDE as you see it.

Patched versions distributed by third party do not count for evaluating the
current status of KDE bugs and your release support period is too short.  The
result is that the intersection between supported and available versions is
empty.
