Tuesday, 4 May 2021. Today KDE releases a bugfix update to KDE Plasma 5, versioned 5.21.5.
Plasma 5.21 was released in February 2021 with many feature refinements
and new modules to complete the desktop experience.
This release adds a month's worth of new translations and fixes from
KDE's contributors. The bugfixes are typically small but important and
include:
Fix crash when stopping PipeWire streaming.
Fix crash on drag-and-drop over panel.
Lockscreen: also activate lock screen windows.
Platforms/drm: Fix crash in EglGbmBackend::presentOnOutput().
Full announcement:

Fetch an upstream patch to avoid a crash when using charmtimetracker
on Wayland. While this avoids the crash, there's no idle-check
any more, so time tracking is less convenient than it is on X11
(where you can get up and go for lunch and deal with the idle
time later).

The april bugfix release for KDE Plasma is here. This wasn't
done immediately for the 5.21.3 ports commit that I landed
yesterday because I wasn't paying attention to latest
releases. Release notes are at

KDE Gear 21.04
Thursday, 22 April 2021
Welcome to KDE Gear ⚙️ 21.04!
KDE produces literally dozens of apps for work, play, education, and
creativity. Kontact, for example, gives you control over all your email,
contact, and agenda; Itinerary keeps you up to date with everything you
need regarding your trips; the KAlgebra graphing calculator works
equally well on your desktop and your phone; Cantor provides you with an
intuitive way of analyzing data and graphing the results; and Kdenlive
makes cutting and building sophisticated-looking videos not only easy,
but fun as well.
These are but a few of the apps releasing new updates today. When
combined with the KDE’s powerful Plasma desktop, they provide you with
most, if not all, the tools you need to be productive in a versatile and
flexible Linux^WFreeBSD environment.
But you don’t even need to run Linux! Many of the apps in this
announcement work on Windows, macOS, and Android as well. This is what
convergent means for KDE: use your favorite apps anywhere, on any
system, on your work computer, mobile or even on your TV!
And, remember: KDE’s apps, the Plasma desktop, Plasma Mobile, Plasma
BigScreen and all the rest of KDE’s software are free and open source.
No licensing, no hidden costs, no spying. Share them with your friends,
install them at work, or use them in your school lab. It is your
software to enjoy where and how you want.
Full announcement and changelogs:
https://kde.org/announcements/gear/21.04/
This updates the KDE Plasma parts to release 5.21.3. There is one
new port, plasma5-systemmonitor, which is the upcoming replacement
for KDE sysguard. It is not installed by default.
Release notes are at
https://kde.org/announcements/plasma/5/5.21.3/
Previous commits tidying up DOCS options left some non-
applications consumers without the necessary kdoctools
dependency, so (re)introduce that now.
These ports use KDE Frameworks and require kdoctools to build. Since
that is no longer an implicit build & run dependency, (re)introduce it
explicitly as a build-time dependency.
No revision bump tool that we have cleans them up or deals with
them, so we end up with duplicated lines. Instead of implementing
that just clean up the 51 ports that do this.
PORTREVISION and PORTEPOCH can be set to 0 explicitly instead if
you need a reminder or placeholder.
Release 21.04.0:
core:
* Hide symbols by default
* TextSelectionDumper: fix word order for RTL text
* Fix rendering of text in some files. Issue #1052
* Implement rendering of Masks of Image subtype. Issue #1058
* Forms: fix unclicking standalone form buttons. Issue #1034
glib:
* Expose more fields from MediaRendition in PopplerMedia
* Use stock glib macro to define boxed type
* Remove incorrecly used volatile from enum type registration code
qt5:
* Fix crash in files with malformed signatures
* Fix memory leak when QImage constructor "fails"
qt6:
* Fix crash in files with malformed signatures
* Fix memory leak when QImage constructor "fails"
utils:
* pdfsig: New paragraph for "-sign" in manpage
* pdfimages: Do not assert in "too big images". Issue #1061
build system:
* Require cmake >= 3.10
* Require Qt 5 >= 5.9
* Require glib >= 2.56
* Require gtk 3 >= 3.22
* Require gdk-pixbuf >= 2.36

Since biji-marshalers.h is included by the libbiji public header
libbiji.h, it must be added as a source to all targets that depend
on libbiji. This can be done by adding it to the sources of
libbiji_dep.
This should unbreak the build with samurai.

This regeneration is required as the new gitlab version changed
the address and the directory the source files can be downloaded.
This commit also applies some small fixes to make sure all ports using
gitlab are buildable.
