Hey, for me it looks like we won't be able to get kdepimlibs without libical 2 for buster. Keep in mind, that kdepimlibs is an old grufted lib set that we also would like to kill. But we also have other packages depending on it like: * basket * kopete (it has a QT5 version in experimental, but this is suitable as replacement yet). and other that may can be killed. extract libical 2 out of kdepimlibs is not that simple, as the whole interface will leak into akonadi-calendar, calcore, calutils,... In short I won't have the time to do the work and test it in the near future. I added pino to this bug report, as pino successfully extracted other parts of old kdelibs/kdepimlibs. hefee -- On Donnerstag, 17.
