For KDE Frameworks and Plasma 5?
No. Its basically done. In Sid. On amd64.
For testing my bet things should be okay in about two or three weeks lastest.
Thats said, this is just for the basic G++ ABI transition. And just for kde-
full stuff. KDE extras stuff is incomplete. Digikam needs work. Calligra too.
To my knowledge someone works on Calligra and its dependencies already.
For the KDE SC 4 to Plasma 5 transition there may be other work. Also for
upstream. As not all functionality of KDE SC 4 may be available.
But at least I think history in krunner will soon work again. As soon as
plasma-workspace 5.4 arrives in unstable I think.

On testing?
Wait a bit more. Help review and close RC bugs that are related to
transitional issues so that they are not blocking important unstable packages
entering testing to make the transition complete. For that you can ask the
reporter whether issue still exists or try yourself in a sid environment in a
VM or so.
