binary incompatible changes in libplasma; you need to rebuild all applets/containments. Okay, but shouldn't you add a security for those cases, to avoid Plasma to completely crash as soon as a plugin is incompatible? Not really. If you are building a development version from source, it's something you should be aware of. If you are using packages, then it's up to the packaging system to keep everything sane. The ABI will be stable for 4.0 and for 4.1+ (although it will change between the two), so 4.0 applets should work for all of 4.0, and 4.1 applets should work for all of 4.1 (and probably for all of 4.2, 4.3 etc.). Given that stability in the released versions, it's not really worth adding version checks. ... not to mention this is precisely why we're offering scripting options for random add-ons. |
