We could bandy this back-n-forth till we're blue in the face, but Patrick is still gonna' do it however he sees fit.

Perhaps that's why someone many years ago gave him the nickname of BDFL

But its a command line application. It requires X libraries because of the job it does.

Nobody can say with 100% certainty why anything is where it is, but perhaps mplayer is in xap because it's an X app?

For X-less, I'd install everything except for the X, XAP, KDE, XFCE series. Having said that though, I've got a few headless VMs which run full installs just because it's easy to keep them updated with slackpkg and disk space is cheap. They each do different jobs, and outside of setting them up for their specific purposes, they're all bog standard. I don't have the time or inclination to customise them. These are working machines, and I need them to be quick & easy to deploy, maintain and upgrade.

Sure, we can.

Everything is where it is because that's exactly where our BDFL wants it to be.

Unless things have changed, the license doesn't allow third-party redistribution. But Broadcom did contribute a free driver that's been merged into the kernel... if you have the firmware installed it should "just work" (it does here, anyway).

Nobody loves PulseAudio 17.0?

Even those who use PipeWire need the client side for that.

KDE Frameworks 5.114.0

Announcements:

Patrick,

Do you anticipate putting KDE Plasma 6 and therefore QT6 into current before the release of v15.1 ?

Or are you thinking that those should wait for v15.2 ?

Perhaps Qt6, but Plasma 6 is for -current-next.

for me downgrading pulseaudio-qt to pulseaudio-qt-1.3-x86_64-3 fixes kdeconnect-kde

EDIT :
kdeconnect needs to be recompiled against pulseaudio-qt
Recompiling kdeconnect fixed the issue
