--- Comment #4 from A. Wilcox (awilfox) <awil...@adelielinux.org> --- Excuse me, but are you kidding? Have you considered maybe not shipping point updates to plasma-workspace-wallpapers and oxygen-icons when they don't change content, instead of REMOVING the current *LTS* release from the stable mirror? The KDE system admins do understand what the term 'LTS' means, right? It means "long term support". Long term. Not short term. The Plasma team has definitely committed[1] to releasing more LTS patches, through at least April 2018. They understand what LTS means, and understand that distributions rely on stability so that they may package your software and bring you the users that donate to your causes and make your community so vibrant. Since 5.8.8 is due in a few days shy of three weeks (2017-10-18), I suppose I don't have much of a case for you moving the 5.8.7 release back to stable, unless there is a major issue that causes the 5.8.8 release to slip. (It doesn't look like this will be the case, judging from the current backlog.) But you *must not* "archive" 5.8.8 to "save space" until April 2018. Is this clear? 5.8.8 is a Long Term Support release and must be supported Long Term. Thank you for your understanding.
