Can I close this?

In unstable it works. How about testing?

You can also close yourself by writing to "794581-d...@bugs.debian.org" with 
an explaination. By closing transitional bugs like this yourself, you can help 
the Qt/KDE team to progress faster.

Thanks,

I'm sorry, when I sent my message I hadn't read your message and I hadn't

 So downgrade breeze to the testing version and upgrade kdecorations to the 
 +b1 version.

I can confirm that the new packages +b1 work with breeze (testing version).

 +b1 version.

So confirmed, thank you. This is technically my fault for mixing
testing and sid packages, so I owe you all an apology. Having said
that, will things be relatively stable for the next little while? I'm
missing my window decorations now, but that's another bug that I hope
will auto-correct with the next batch of packages entering testing. At
least I can work around that and use my desktop again.

Now that kdecoration has been rebuilt in testing, downgrade to the testing 
version of breeze.  One way to downgrade would be to manually download the 
4:5.3.2-2 packages from breeze that you have installed from 
http://http.debian.net/debian/pool/main/b/breeze (that will redirect to a 
~nearby mirror) and manually install them with dpkg.

Downgrade breeze to 4:5.3.2-2, libkdecorations2-5 and libkdecorations2private5 
to 4:5.3.2-1.

You should only have to downgrade breeze.  Today's rebuild of kdecorations 
should resolve its problems.

So downgrade breeze to the testing version and upgrade kdecorations to the +b1 
version.
