But I feel like I'm going off subject. I also think you are
right, the KDE
COPR-solution would work as long as it is documented somewhere. We could
simply put it in the Fedora docs page, but also clearly note that those
packages are not supported, but will be updated until the underlying
frameworks (e.g. Xorg, or when the KDE foundation no longer supports Xorg,
whichever comes first) are no longer available.
Unlike you ("you" = the KDE SIG), I actually believe I can probably keep my
*-x11 packages on life support for some time even if and when KDE upstream
drops their X11 support. Kinda like I have been doing for, e.g., Blogilo.
Realistic would be until the release of Plasma 7, unless some Plasma 6.x
introduces major changes that make it impractical. But I hope this is not
going to be a concern for Fedora 40.
