    [$] KDE Plasma X11 support gets a reprieve for Fedora 40

    Description:
    The Fedora Project is working toward the release
    of Fedora Linux 40, and (as with each release) that means changes
    to the way the project works and the software included in its repositories. Most
    of the changes
    set for Fedora 40 are uncontroversial, but one change is causing quite
    a stir. The KDE Special Interest Group's (SIG) proposal to adopt KDE Plasma 6 with only Wayland session support, which it interpreted as a mandate to block any X11 packages for Plasma. Others saw it as overreach by the SIG, and an attempt to block users and contributors from maintaining software they needed.
