[Pkg-kde-extras] Want to help package plasma-keyboard and plasma-login-manager

Hey,

That is nice to hear, that you want to put effort into packaging.
The normal way in Debian to inform people about your intend wor is to create a 
ITP  (intent to package) bug on the wnpp package, to actually inform everyone 
that you are start(ed) packaging. 

When you search

https://bugs.debian.org/wnpp

you will find:

https://bugs.debian.org/1116351

Because it is from Sep 25, you may ask on that bug report about the current 
state to get in contact with Yifei to coordinate and hopefully join your 
efforts.

For plasma-login-manager I don't found any ITP, so create one.

Btw. providing a link to a git repo helps others to join.

There are a lot of login managers, so there is no need that every login 
manager supports every init system. Especially sddm is still available. Sure 
it would be nice, so support multiple init systems, but this can enabled later 
on.

We won't switch to use plasma-login-manager by default for a default 
installation soon anyways.
 
Btw. please use pkg-kde-talk for discussions within the Qt/KDE maintainers 
team, the pkg-kde-extras list is only for bug reports. As otherwise your 
request will be overseen.

Regards,
