For quite some time I had the luxury to work on any distribution of my choice. At my current job, however, I have to work on a very old distribution and there's no chance that will change. The version of KDevelop available on that distribution is also ancient. The best I can do is to download an AppImage. I am really grateful for having that option. It is a life saver.  I am sure there are many other people in the same predicament. It would be absolutely fantastic if these AppImages would be updated a bit more frequently. Even better if they were released regularly for major new versions. Thanks.

i have also requested this before (though at least last month i was able to update to a recent version of ubuntu and now have access to the latest snaps)

No one is interested in maintaining the KDevelop AppImage lately. Volunteers are welcome.
