Heya Rick,

Regarding kdev-xdebug: Unfortunately this hasn't been ported over to Qt5/KF5 
yet.

I'm CC'ing kdevelop-devel at kde.org, which is the better place for this 
discussion.

No-one stepped up so far to do it, but you're welcome to give it a try.

Porting should be pretty straight forward, just follow the changes we did in 
e.g. kdevelop.git for other plugins.

As said above, I'd rather have a look at the changes done in e.g. kdev-
python.git or kdevelop.git. That'll get you started quickly.

Here are the porting notes for porting towards KF5 in case you're experiencing 
problems:
  https://community.kde.org/Frameworks/Porting_Notes (super helpful)

Hope that helps.

Looking forward to a kdev-xdebug port to KF5! :)

Cheers,
Kevin
