    KDE Gear 23.04.2 and Frameworks 5.107 available in Kubuntu Backports

    Above mentioned updates for our preferred desktop environment are availabe for Kubuntu 23.04 in the Kubuntu Backports PPA.
    For example KDE Gear 23.04.2 gets rid of an annoying Dolphin bug that was intruduced with Gear 23.04.1 concerning the "multiple tabs" and "split view" feature.


    Thank you very much!


    You can find the installation instructions on the Kubuntu Backports PPA website, but here they are again:

    Open the Konsole terminal emulator and enter
    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports
    sudo apt update
    sudo apt full-upgrade
    reboot

    After this any future updates that the Kubuntu Backports PPA provides for your Kubuntu version will be automatically installed when you update your system.


    As always I strongly recommend that you have prepared some way to revert your system to a previous state if something goes wrong, e.g.:

    One can install ppa-purge before and use it to get rid of the Kubuntu Backports' software again.
    Or use a Timeshift system backup.
    Or use LVM/ext4 with snapshots or btrfs with snapshots as your file system.
    Or use a Clonezilla volume backup.
    Or …​​

    I wonder if the icons are busted, like in neon atm.

      claydoh :
      I just had a quick look at Kubuntu 23.04 + Kubuntu Backports with the above mentioned updates and I could not spot any missing icons (e.g. the one for System Settings).
      And I had another quick look at KDE neon after updating it: indeed there are missing a lot of icons (concerning 30-40% of the "standard" applications?), so it seems to be a bug in KDE neon only…

        ya, looks like neon's packge is just missing them - the size is a bit too small.
