Additionally to Albert's questions I don't understand why distros that stil=

need Qt 5 builds of breeze and plasma-integration cannot simply build the=20
latest released versions that support(ed) Qt 5. Why do they need the latest=

and greatest breeze and plasma-integration for the remaining Qt 5 apps whic=
h=20
probably haven't seen a release in years? Does plasma-integration need to=20
match the version of Plasma?
