My kernel is 4.7
If you wonder why I have "Only" that kernel it is because I did a "stretch" dist upgrade (with aptitude)
Then additionally installed KDE sid packages with that command.
aptitude -s -R --visual-preview -t sid install $(aptitude search -F"%p; %v; %V; %d" -t sid '?and(?installed(?maintainer(debian-qt-kde)),?or(?version(5.7.1.2016),?version(4:16.04.3-3),?version(5.8.3-1),?version(4:4.8.7.dfsg-10)))'|cut -d\; -f1|tr '\n' ' ')
I did that about 3 or 4 days ago, I might not be relevant anymore, but that's the idea.
I did that after the observation of that page (at the considered time):
https://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=debian-qt-kde%40lists.debian.org
It might be a bad idea, but that's what I did.
My system is functional, save for the "big" glitch describe above.
Another peculiarity: I stopped using powerdevil some 2 month ago because it was giving me troubles with my configuration:
laptop with always closed lid and external monitor.
In any other aspect my system is pretty standard.

Chris
