KDE (plasma6) versions 6.3.X should be abonadoned in trixie but 6.4.X added



Dear list,

due to some issue on my notebook with debian/trixe, I contacted the KDE 
developers. 

They told me, that there will be no more work on plasma6 version 6.3.X, as all 
work is now at version 6.4.X.

This means, debian/trixie is starting with libs and packages, where bugs are 
no more fixed, or toi say; The next oficial release is starting with antiquated 
software, which will obviously not fixed at bugs.

In my personal eyes this is not a good idea and will deminish the until today 
well known quality of debian.

Yes, I know the politics of debian, but shouldn`t we not abandon 6.3 packages 
of plasma and add 6.4 versions instead, even when it means, the official release 
of trixie will be later?

Dunno how other people had experience with trixie, but mine was (and this the 
first time since over 20 years!), worst for the first time.

Plasma6 almost not usable, X is often freezing and hanging and some minor 
issues. 

Please understand, I do not want to mourne, as I know things always can go 
wrong, but this time it is really hard stuff. 

So, my suggestion, let us add and wait for plasma 6.4 and use well working 
software (I apologize here, if I did not find the correct and polite English 
idioms, I do not want blame anyone!)

I will be hapy to read your sight of this.

Best regards

Hans
