Lost behavior between KDE 4.1.3.1 and 5.5.5

[Draciron Smith]

That's not a big issue for me since I only use Kmail to open mail archives
and cannot use it in KDE 5 anyway as it brings up Akondi and Akondi buries
my system. I'll download the strait Ubuntu rather than Kbuntu and see if
Trinity is supported on that and give it a try. I use Chrome primarily,
Firefox for some stuff. Occasionally Opera. Not a big fan of Konquerer.

I remember a conversation not long after KDE4 came out about QT
dependencies and KDE. I would think that Trinity would stick with the
latest QT just for support issues. The primary KDE apps I'm hooked on are
things like Krusader, SoundKonverter, Ksnapshot, K3B, Krename, things like
that. Most stuff I use desktop independent like Synaptic, Chrome, etc or
mix in Gnome apps like Gimp, Gphoto, etc. Kmail is my favorite mail
platform but I I switched to web mail a long time ago.
