I avoid third party repositories usually to avoid compatibility issues.
I still remember quite some upgrade and switch between each other issues
related those extra Debian Multimedia repository packages I used a long
time ago.
I'd love that Debian Qt/KDE team and Norbert would work together –
especially given that it is a small team –, but as far as I got there is
some reason that they don't. I feel like offering an alternative
repository, instead of first contacting the team was not all that
helpful. I also feel like not commenting on this any further as I got
the impression it is a somewhat sensitive issue given that as far as I
got there has been a quite strong reaction to his offer to help.
I am grateful for Pino packaging 20.04 KDE application packages. Thanks,
Pino! Of course I would love to see current Plasma and especially KF
packaged, but as I am still not feeling like offering help myself, I make
no demand either. It is all volunteer work after all.
(Now I hope I did not offend anyone by what I wrote. In case I did,
please understand that I tried carefully not do and accept my
apologies.)
Best,
