Luigi pointed out to me that also Plasma packages are intended to be
installed in lock step regarding their version.
I was aware of this for KDE Frameworks, but I was not aware of this for
Plasma.
So this is another way things can break. The other one is that they are
still experimental packages.
So not recommended. And if you still mix versions you get to keep the
pieces *twice* :)
