 Backport landing is a bit of mess (as in updates want to remove most of the plasma/kde packages) From what I could determine libkf5kiowidgets5 seemed to be one of the blocking packages.  I would be quite happy  if someone would explain the proper way to troubleshoot this issue.

[05:52] <arraybolt3[m]> ahoneybun: I'm trying to send you a DM but Matrix is glitching badly, could you try to send me a DM and see if that works?
[05:53] <arraybolt3[m]> Nevermind, I got it working.
[12:17] <ahoneybun[m]> Sure
[13:40] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[16:04] <ahoneybun[m]> Heyo BluesKaj
[16:52] <aaronprisk[m]> Hey Kubuntu folks, our testing week begins next week and I want to make sure we're supplying the community with the best info to help out the flavours. Are there any Kubuntu specific testing announcements or resources you'd like us to include in our postings?
[18:23] <ahoneybun[m]> Testing for 23.04?
[18:27] <aaronprisk[m]> ahoneybun[m]: Yes. Here was last years discourse post for reference:
[18:27] <aaronprisk[m]> https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/ubuntu-22-10-testing-week/30894
[18:30] <ahoneybun[m]> I think that should be fine as it is.
[18:31] <aaronprisk[m]> Alright, thank you. If your team decides to post something, feel free to let me know and I'll be sure to update the post. 
[21:59] <mparillo> If you have a link to the 23.04 testing week, we can update the draft Beta news post.
[22:35] <RikMills> 5.27.2 uploaded to lunar and in backports ppa
[22:36] <RikMills> https://kde.org/announcements/plasma/5/5.27.2/
[22:36] <RikMills> mmikowski: experimental ppa also updated
[22:37] <mmikowski> Rik, you da man!
[22:37] <mmikowski> Already 5.27.1 is looking awesome.
[22:39] <mmikowski> I can't get to it right now, but by tomorrow should have more feedback. First pass testing showed lots of things fixed, and only one minor issue with a new feature. That's after about 4 hours of testing and 16 in daily use.
[22:39] <mmikowski> RikMills: ^^
[22:40] <mmikowski> Some fixes are crashes, like the theme-change crash.  Will know more about XDG support by tommorow-ish
[22:40] <RikMills> nice. thanks!
[22:41] <mmikowski> Getting 22.04 LTS up to the latest Plasma 5.27 LTS is a great choice for all users.
[22:42] <mmikowski> You're welcome RikMills, and as always, great work.
