guess: uses it for window decoration and probably is optional so
should be built without as kwin5 cannot load kwin4 decorations

judging from the name it uses ksmserver to shut down

IIRC this one heavily uses ksysguard libs and probably needs removing
unless there is a qt5 version

no clue

that should be plasma5 now as per kde's releases

uses ksysguard to get a list of processes for the debugger. this is
optional and upstream (Aleix) suggested to simply build without this
feature.

probably same as ktorrent and kshutdown

probably uses ksysguard plotting tech looking at screenshots. so this

all plasmoids have no plasma5 version so I consider them unmaintained
until further notice
