KWin:
Now takes into accont GTK_APPLICATION_ID property for desktop file
name on X11, too
Dolphin/KIO:
Dolphin port to KFilePlacesView has been merged \o/ what's left to be done
Fix free space bar (I will use a custom painted rectangle like
Dolphin had instead of a KCapacityBar as it just does not fit in the
constrained space we have)
There is an odd drag and drop issue, which seems to be a Qt
bug. When dropping a folder onto a folder in Places, it still adds it
to the model ("fallback" in Qt), despite it having accepted the
dropevent (in KFilePlacesView), I don't understand why
KIconLoader bugs:
picks wrong high dpi icon for non-matching size (if you
request 16@2x you get 16@2x but if you request 17@2x you get 32@1x),
visible during transition
overlay painter disregards screen scaling
Some other minor cleanup and performance work, maybe
Other:
Fixed Plasma Firewall showing busy indicator ontop of "no
connections" on Connections page
Fixed blurry printer list on high-dpi in print-manager
https://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qtbase.git/tree/src/widgets/itemviews/qabstractitemview.cpp?h=5.15#n2123
in QAbstractItemView::dropEvent it checks dropOn which does if
(event->isAccepted()) return false and in
https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/kio/-/blob/master/src/filewidgets/kfileplacesview.cpp#L1275
it does event->acceptProposedAction();
so I don't see why it would still add it

* https://invent.kde.org/qt/qt/qtwayland/-/merge_requests/24 (nvidia
gbm improvements) looks like it's mergable
* Regarding the beta, there was one regression in kcm_keyboard
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-desktop/-/merge_requests/797
* I wonder how that wasn't noticed earlier, but fixing that was simple at least
* Then there's the issue with kickoff favorites no longer being distro
configurable, which RikMills also hit today
* That's a fresh 5.23.5 regression:
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-desktop/-/merge_requests/793
(mainly the discussion, not the MR itself)
* From a downstream perspective, the 5.24 beta looks fine so far, I'll
submit the packages after giving it a final test run
* Are there any other rather annoying beta issues which got fixed
meanwhile or have pending fixes?
[nicofee]: yes
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/-/merge_requests/1368
[MartinR]: There was also that SDDM issue (background changed from PNG
to JPG, I believe)
[fvogt]: Right, the one that was fixed before anyone actually hit it :D

* I released plasma 5.24 beta
* no major issues
* promo seem to be working on the final announce and video, if anyone
has input do talk to them
* we have a testing day pencilled in for thursday
* I'm busy until 11GMT and after 1700GMT that day but could help
between those hours
* I'd need a list of distos with packages and how to install them I think
* then publicise it
(Jonathan and Marco will run a small one between 11 and 17)

* merged fixes for multi monitor: less plasma crashes (the hdmi unplug
issue) and now we don't have anymore a containment-less situation
after disconnecting everything and reconnecting (which only a plasma
restart can solve)
* taken over and continuing Cyril patches for the containment

* written for it much more solid functions to move containemnts around
screens, after merger the rest of plasma containment management will
be ported to those
