Bug#998217: RM: ksysguard/4:5.21.5-2

Yes, very much. Very painful due to the long delay via mesa - llvm.
We have tightened the deps so that doesn't happen again, but that

Yes, that is as it supposed to be and "apt dist-upgrade" would select
this.
As discussed on IRC, there is ongoing discussion to provide Plasma 5.23
compatible version of ksysguard, which was dropped from Plasma in 5.22.
For that reason, I don't want to drop it completely from Debian with a
removal, but keep it in unstable (with an RC bug open so it doesn't
transition to testing until a compatible release is available).

Yes, that is my aim: The only requirement is dropping ksysguard from
testing. Then all the 5.23 can transition to testing, including the fix
for the borken upgrade from testing->unstable.
Does this answer your questions?
All the best
Norbert
