Hi local10,
Am thinking about upgrading from Bullseye to Bookworm as there are some minor bugs in Bullseye that annoy me and I hope they are resolved in Bullseye. What's the current state of KDE in testing and testing in general? Any issues I need to be aware of? I
use KDE with X.
Testing is in a generally usable state and many are using it as a daily driver. Obviously if you're running mission critical machines and cannot afford hicups you should be running stable.
We try to follow upstream releases closely in testing with the latest upstream versions of Plasma and Gear (applications) currently available and the KDE frameworks libraries being slightly older.
One thing to be aware of is to be more careful when upgrading major versions of Plasma. We currently don't have a safe way to ensure that all Plasma packages transition form unstable (where we upload them) to testing at once. So be sure you know what you'
re doing when doing upgrades to ensure you don't end up with mixed versions of Plasma packages.
Or/and continue reading this list where transitions are announced and you get warned during transitions.
Regarding the bugs we're following upstream closely, so as others have said we tend to have mostly upstream bugs. 🙂
It's a bit easier to report these to upstream than if you're using stable though, because upstream focus is really on the latest versions and not on our stable ones.
Happy testing !
