Re: Future of Norbert's packages in Debian



Hi Luc,

the DAMs decision is extremly frustrating for Debian KDE users and given the 
short statement on debian-user

https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2022/01/msg00807.html

it is at least not clear to me if they seriously searched for a solution which 
would have served better all involved parties and the Debian (KDE) users. This 
message even increases the doubt, that searching for such a solution was a 
priority for them

https://lists.debian.org/debian-project/2019/01/msg00186.html

I used the ... which the DAMs created in Debian KDE as opportunity and 
installed on a new desktop Manjaro stable instead of Debian to experiment with 
it (I still have Debian bullseye desktops in use). As a Debian stable user I 
considered manjaro more appropriate than Arch.

Kmail 5.19.0/21.12.0 in manjaro stable was a pleasant surprise. Even though it 
is newer than Kmail in Debian unstable, the manjaro stable upgrade to 21.12.1 
is downloaded while I am writting. I am curious to see how this experiment 
goes in the next months in particular the updates. The good thing for Open 
Source users is that we have choice if things go into the wrong direction 
somewhere :-)
