I take the opportunity to insert here a note, probably mostly for myself:
the package: kdegraphics-thumbnailers (4:15.12.0-1), which is the version in
experimental now, and has been (if I'm not mistaken) since 2016-02-01, has an
issue which has been discussed in this thread:
https://lists.debian.org/debian-kde/2016/04/msg00031.html.
The issue, as it has been said, is fixed "in Debian repos", but not I think in
the version which is available...
So in case you would have to use this 4:15.12.0-1 version you should have to
apply the workaround described in the thread above.
I'm pretty sure I've made myself quite unclear, whatever...
Also, for those like myself who have applied the workaround, if the version
that will come in unstable, and in time in testing, happens to be a newer
version, don't forget then to undo the "ln -s" before the upgrade... (Like I
said, mostly for myself.)
