And as apparently some people didn't read the links properly, I'd like to 
paste the proper parts here in plain text:

Tarballs that we do not ship anymore
* libkface (was unmaintained and didn't compile against newer opencv)
* blogilo (too broken, needs someone to step up and fix it and then it can 
rejoin)
* jovie (replaced by Qt Speech)
* kaccessible (superseded by the bridge from the Qt accessibility API to At-
Spi provided by Qt5)
* ksaneplugin (not used even during kdelibs 4.x times)
* kde-runtime (was kdelibs4-based split into various other repos for kf5-based 
counterparts)
* kremotecontrol (was not ported to KF5)
* kppp (was not ported to KF5)
* kfilereplace (was not ported to KF5)
* klinkstatus (was not ported to KF5)
* kopete (was not ported to KF5)
* kscd (was not ported to KF5)
* kstars (moves to released independently)

So, in the end it is about kremotecontrol, kppp, kfilereplace, klinkstatus, 
kopete, kscd, kfilereplace, klinkstatus, kscd being dropped. (and blogilo of 
course, which doesn't work anyway since about 2 years....)

About kopete I answered already.
kscd is ported too, same status I suppose.

The rest really haven't been ported yet, but may be if somebody steps up to do 
it.

Kind Regards,
Wolfgang
