Hey,

actually you should send those requests to the packagers discussion list:
pkg-kde-talk at alioth-lists.debian.net

The list debian-qt-kde at lists.debian.org is not discussion and only the bug 
mailing list.

Actually we also try to get the last plasma version into testing. Hopefully we 
get an ACK from the release team. Currently you can grab the last Plasma 
version from experimental.

We package the KDE packages with out scripts you find under:

https://salsa.debian.org/qt-kde-team/pkg-kde-dev-scripts

Unfortunately it is not documented or only very few bits are documented :( 
That's why don't hesitate to ask and we try together to improve the 
documentation. A new person with new questions is always a good motivation to 
do so. A good place for questions is also IRC #debian-qt-kde (on 
irc.debian.org) or the corresponding Matrix channel.

We also are happy if more people join our team and help packaging KDE 
software.

Regards,

hefee
