KDE Frameworks 5.2.0 was released today.
http://www.kde.org/announcements/kde-frameworks-5.2.0.php
Here is the list of important changes since the previous release:
### KActivities
* reimplementation of the file item plugin for linking files to activities
### KArchive
* fix handling of uncompressed files
### KConfigWidgets
* fix missing default shortcuts for standard actions, leading
to many runtime warnings
* better support for QGroupBox in KConfigDialogManager
### KCoreAddons
* Mark KAboutData::setProgramIconName() as deprecated, it did not
do anything. Use QApplication::setWindowIcon(QIcon::fromTheme("...")) instead.
* new classes Kdelibs4ConfigMigrator and KPluginMetaData
### KDeclarative
* added org.kde.kio component.
### KImageFormats
* disable the DDS and JPEG-2000 plugins when Qt version is 5.3
or later
### KIO
* now follows the mime-apps spec, for better interoperability
with gio when it comes to the user's preferred and default apps.
* new classes EmptyTrashJob and RestoreJob.
* new functions isClipboardDataCut and setClipboardDataCut.
### KNewStuff
* installing "stuff" works again (porting bug)
### KWidgetsAddons
* new class KColumnResizer (makes it easy to vertically align widgets across
groups)
### KWindowSystem
* New method KWindowSystem::setOnActivities
### KXmlGui
* KActionCollection::setDefaultShortcuts now makes the shortcut
active too, to simplify application code.
### Threadweaver
* The maximum worker count will now decrease if a lower value is set
after workers have been created. Previously, workers would remain active
once they have been created.
* Examples from the previous ThreadWeaverDemos Github repository are
being merged into the KF5 ThreadWeaver repo.
* The maximum worker count can now be set to zero (the previous minimum
was 1). Doing so will effectively halt processing in the queue.
* Documentation of various aspects of ThreadWeaver use is becoming part
of the KDE Frameworks Cookbook. Parts of it is located in the examples/
directory.
### Buildsystem changes
* Support for relative libexec dir.
### Frameworkintegration
* the file dialog now remembers its size correctly, and works better with
remote URLs.
