While I understand the motivation behind it, just moving the libraries will not help much: there also helper binaries for kdelibs 4.x, and the whole kde 4.x packaging is not completely not multiarch-aware. Changing it now would mean: - moving libraries in multiarch paths - adapt all the kdelibs 4.x packagings to the new library paths - properly splitting helpers from libraries (see kde-runtime) Considering that the default desktop environment is Plasma 5, based on Qt5, and applications are getting (slowly though) ported over to Qt5/KF5, I think this is not a reasonable option to do the aforementioned work now. So I'm setting this bug as wontfix, sorry. (I see the latest version of qt-at-spi does not depend on libkdecore5 anymore, so this bug is left open as reference.) Thanks, -- Pino Toscano
