Description Laurent Bonnaud 2016-03-17 16:18:12 UTC 
Hi,

all neon packages for plasma have a 5.5.4+git version number except plasma-nm that is at version 5.5.3.  This is a problem because it is less recent than the package provided by the kubuntu-ppa/backports PPA and is perhaps the cause of bug #360668.

$ apt-cache policy plasma-nm
plasma-nm:
  Installed: 4:5.5.4-0ubuntu1~ubuntu15.10~ppa1
  Candidate: 4:5.5.4-0ubuntu1~ubuntu15.10~ppa1
  Version table:
 *** 4:5.5.4-0ubuntu1~ubuntu15.10~ppa1 0
        500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu/ wily/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     4:5.5.3+git20160316.1404+15.10-0 0

Reproducible: Always

The package was built yesterday as can be seen from the git timestamp 20160316

We've not yet worked out a way to keep the version number sane compared to the source it's built from.

Unfortunately Neon archives aren't expected to be compatible with other archives including kubuntu backports
