With some research using https://tracker.debian.org or
"rmadison" command from "devscripts" package on individual package names
related to Plasma one can find that most Plasma 6.3.5 packages are already
in unstable. See for example plasma-desktop package:

https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/plasma-desktop

Due to a longer migration time it will take a bit for them to migrate to
testing. But if the intention would be to keep Plasma 6.3.5 out of Trixie,
these packages would be in experimental.

However it appears some packages may stay at 6.3.4. Like "plasma-nm" or
"plasma-workspace-wallpapers" (the other workspace packages are at 6.3.5).
However from a first glance these appear to be leaf packages which are not
at the core of Plasma functionality. And there may not have been any
(significant) changes to them anyway since 6.3.4.

Also you can refer to the wiki page regarding the plan of the team for
Trixie:

https://wiki.debian.org/PkgQtKde/TrixieReleasePlans

However, this is already a bit outdated as it still refers to KF 6.12 for
Trixie, while it already has KF 6.13. But Plasma 6.3.5 is prominently
mentioned there.

Thanks.

Thanks for the info. I see where freeze was unfrozen so the packages can migrate. https://tracker.debian.org is an interesting site. I will have to remember that one.

Thanks

Tim
