[EPEL-devel] Re: RHEL/CentOS 8.x and KDE

[Troy Dawson]

Yes.
There are several of us that are KDE users (Well, I am, and I assume
there are others).
It will probably be a case of figuring out who is the maintainer or if
we do it as a group.
There are a few of us who have rebuilt it already for RHEL8 Beta.  As
far as I know, I am the only one who is sharing my repo publically.[1]
 So if you want to test it out while you test the RHEL8 Beta, you can.
Notes about my repo.
1 - I removed all KDE4 references
2 - I removed most python2 references.
3 - Not all kde applications built.  Here is my list of packages that
are not in my repo.[2]
