Hello,
I'm generally looking forward final drop of KDE4 and having everything only on 
KDE5, but there are some important KDE4 based applications I use. Do You or 
anyone have any idea about replacement or ongoing KF5 port of:
* Amarok (is there any other official and maintained KDE music player? There 
seems to be some KF5 port in home:wolfi323 and other repos)
* KBibTex (some KF5 version is in home:wolfi323)
* Kile (excellent TeX editor, there is KF5 beta in KDE:Unstable:Extra, 
upstream is working on KF5 version)
* Kopete (especially when Telepathy based solution was recently dropped as 
unmaintained, there seems to be some KF5 port in home:wolfi323)
* Krename (some KF5 version is in home:wolfi323)
* RKWard (IMHO the best R GUI, there is ongoing upstream work on KF5 port, 
some dev version is in home:wolfi323)
Interestingly, 'zypper se -i -s --requires kdelibs4' shows some applications 
of version like 17.08.X requiring Qt4/KDE4 libs, like akonadi-ews, dolphin-
plugins, kalzium, kfind, kmplot, konqueror, soundkonverter. Why is there such 
requirement and what is going to happen with such applications?
Thank You for all Your work on KDE!
V.
