Is Wacom still broken in Wayland Plasma?
My Wacom-based touchscreen works fine in X with only libinput installed. In Wayland, the touchscreen, stylus and all other features are completely unresponsive. I found complaints a few years old that this was a known defect. However, references to it in https://community.kde.org/Plasma/Wayland_Showstoppers have been removed. Is it still known to be broken or have I not set it up correctly? I can find plenty of information about setting up tablets in X, but not on Wayland or with libinput. Guidance would be much appreciated if it's possible.

However so far as to my knowledge it has no OMEMO encryption yet. That is a no-go for me. And while there are nice updated versions of PSI Plus in Debian experimental, I again went back to dino-im… it is not great UI wise, especially as it insists of opening images I receive by chat with Imagemagick which has a GUI that IMHO should not be thrown at mere mortals…¹ however, that may just be cause its GTK and such does not use the standard applications set for KDE applications. But I did not find where to set which application it shall use. I hope I do not have to install GNOME Settings to change that. PSI Plus? Well it appears to have a ton of features, but it does not work with one of my XMPP accounts and… its a ton of complexity. I don't really understand this software. Kopete and especially KDE Telepathy are quite nice approaches. It is a pity that those seem to be abandoned. But yeah, it may make sense to have something that does not try to support every chat protocol in existence. As far as I see about what currently matters, support IRC, XMPP and Matrix… and be done with it. Especially skip all the proprietary platforms like ICQ – is thing still a thing? – and AOL and what not. [1] On command line it can be really handy, but please leave me alone with that GUI.

There is a new XMPP-centric KDE program called Kaidan [1] that looks very nice. It already supports Jingle. I was able to build it from source a while ago, all deps are packaged and it just needed a library version from experimental. They produce their own not-necessarily-high-quality/automatic debs upstream. I asked them here [2] if they'd talked to anyone about packaging it in Debian proper, or if it were a good idea since Kaidan is still semi-betaish. I didn't hear back but it looks very promising.

Baloo 5.70 likely lighter on system under laod
Hi! There is a nice change in Baloo 5.70. The Baloo file indexing service now uses fewer system resources–in particular disk I/O–when the system is in use by the user (Stefan Brüns, Frameworks 5.70) https://pointieststick.com/2020/04/17/this-week-in-kde-our-cup-overfloweth-with-improvements/ [Extractor] Better balance idle and busy mode https://phabricator.kde.org/D28864 So Baloo should be lighter on the system especially when the system is in use for something else. Let's how that will work out. Another nice one will come in 5.7.1: The Baloo file indexing service no longer triggers a brief I/O spike when renaming files, and its database now stores information more efficiently and therefore grows more slowly (Stefan Brüns, Frameworks 5.71) https://pointieststick.com/2020/05/08/this-week-in-kde-get-new-clipped-subsurface-dolphin-folder-sizes/ Store filename terms just once https://phabricator.kde.org/D28932 Ciao, -- Martin
Re: KDEPIM 20.04 and KDE Frameworks 5.70 coming to unstable now
Hi Sedat, hi community! Sedat Dilek - 27.05.20, 13:03:40 CEST: > Some stuff like kmail I have stolen from incoming.d.o/buildd-unstable. So I did something ridiculous: I actually waited till I could upgrade using just the packages from unstable :) – Kopete still got uninstalled, but as I do not need it and I think its not even up to date regarding XMPP/Jabber and OMEMO… I said, yes, go ahead. Thing is, right now it appears to me KDE does not have any suitable chat application. Konversation for IRC may be good to go, but I use Quassel IRC with core running on my server for that. But Kopete or KDE Telepathy appear to be mostly unmaintained and buggy. So far everything works. Three observations so far: - I got a warning of KAlarm about using archived alarms without having a calendar for it. Well I just told it not to archive alarms. So far so good. - A connection error I got with a nice mail provider I use some accounts with IMAP got more specific and I now see that it was related to sieve protocol. As I don't use sieve filtering on that account I just disabled it. Also good. - Unread mails in message list in KMail show in *purple* color. Interesting choice. So I told it to use custom color scheme and set a color that better suits my taste. I may report a bug about this, as with white background that purple really does not look that readable. Let's see whether anything else comes up. I do hope that the frequent stalls during POP3 retrieval or message filtering are gone now. They appeared somewhat before KDEPIM/Akonadi 19.08 tough. If they aren't gone: I have not much of an idea on how to provide a useful upstream bug report about it, cause I have no idea what is causing those stalls and I see nothing obvious in logs. I am pretty certain tough that these are not caused by my Dovecot POP3/IMAP server. Best, -- Martin
