This week in KDE: Well just look at all these pictures!
Nate. January 13, 2023.
This one is pretty juicy in the eye candy department as we ramp up in the new year! Check out all this goodness:.........
Speaking of KDE and Plasma, how does one get color management to work in slackware64-current? I've installed colord and colord-kde, but I'm having no luck. Under system settings - hardware - color management I see 'Error loading QML file.' Then I see file:///usr/share/kpackage/kcms/kcm_colord/contents/ui/main.qml:13 module "org.kde.kirigamiaddons.treeview" is not installed.
Is the 'not installed' thing on my end, or slackware? IE: does KDE in slackware come almost ready to run color management, or do I need to do some deep diving?
Now I have colord-kde source code, but it does not build properly:
-- The following RUNTIME packages have not been found:
* org.kde.kirigamiaddons.treeview-QMLModule, QML module 'org.kde.kirigamiaddons.treeview' is a runtime dependency.
I don't have any idea where that module would be, and I've been scouring the internet for a day. Any thoughts?

Thanks, Windu. Those are about the same thing that I got from github. It's still complaining about the missing file.
Because crtlaltca pointed to unreleased code (colord-kde 22.12.1 does not require kirigami-addons) I guess you'll have to get the latest snapshot for kirigami-addons from their git repository to make this unreleased colord-kde code compile?

I started with the git version (master), and then reverted to stable branches. I always got the same problem: the missing treeview file.
It seems like kirigami-addons is a WIP. Git pull gives updates every day or two, so someone is working on it.
I'll keep at this until I have color management in Plasma.

KDE Plasma 5.27: Top New Features and Release Details
by Arindam
The list of impressive features and enhancements of the KDE Plasma 5.27 desktop is arriving in February.
In a way, KDE Plasma 5.27 is a milestone release.
Firstly, it is the final LTS release of the Plasma 5 version and the last installment of the Plasma 5 series. Initial porting work has already started for Plasma 6 series, which would be based on Qt 6 version.........
Today we are bringing you the preview version of KDE's Plasma 5.27 release.
Plasma 5.27 Beta is aimed at testers, developers, and bug-hunters.
As well as our lightweight and feature rich Linux Desktop this release adds a Bigscreen
version of Plasma for use on televisions.
Plasma 5.27 beta seems to run fine on slackware-current.
A few notes:
1. thank you pat for updating plasma-wayland-protocols to 1.10, since it's required by plasma 5.26.90
2. kscreen and kscreenlocker must be moved after libkscreen (kscreenlocker now depends on KF5::ScreenDpms)
3. the plasma-workspace patch for desktop icons need to be reworked or dropped (the directory kioslave/desktop referenced in the patch is now named kioworker/desktop)
4. the patch for drkonqi used to remove kuserfeedback neeeds rework; i see pat already added kuserfeedback to the packages, to i guess the patch won't be needed anymore.
