I see, thanks! Note that I have almost no idea wrt autopkg tests as we don't 
use it in the Qt stack.

I used i, d, v, y, shift+p. I even retried them just now in case I missed 
something.

I might be missing something, but at this point:

- If there is a regression:

    * it would be small and can be worked around by using the normal editing
      mode.
    * odds are highly on the bug-on-kdepim side, as Qt 5.11.1 is just a patch
      release of 5.11.0 which has been shipped in other distros for months
      already (we skip even releases due to the fact that we need to do
      transitions).
    * If the bug is in kdepim then the best way to solve it would be to psuh a
      new version, for which we need a transition.

- No users have complained about this so far, and we do have lots of users 
using unstable and reporting bugs. This has proven to be a nice regression 
method so far ;-)

So I think the best way to go here is just let Qt migrate.

Regards, Lisandro.
