Make my Neon LTS

Wed Sep 14, 2016 5:20 pm
In KDE Neon presentation at Akademy, a new Neon version was mentioned, that will contain the LTS versions of Plasma and Qt (5.8 AND 5.6). I have an existing workstation running KDE Neon. Will I be able to make it LTS? Or should I install from scratch? Probably not, because (among others) this will induce Qt downgrade, right?

A very constructive way to respond to a question that, from your viewpoint -even from my viewpoint, as mentioned- seems technologically non-feasible. Thank you.

Qt would not get downgraded, as far as Plasma is concerned Qt 5.6 would be a regression (e.g. IIRC multiscreen is vastly more broken there).

Personally I'm not interested in KDE LTS, the whole point of me installing KDE Neon was to get latest stable (user edition) KDE software :D

Oh, and the occasional download/install/trial/delete of KDE developer unstable edition that I do just to check out what's upcoming.

Isn't this the same thread as this?

viewtopic.php?f=309&t=135498

I completely do not get this call for a Neon LTS? That's what Kubuntu is for. Hello? The whole purpose of Neon is to provide an up to date KDE desktop on a stable LTS base.

Asking for a Neon "LTS" is like saying: Hey, how about a boat that can drive on land!!!!!!!

We already have those.

They're called "Cars".
