Description Mark Hughey 2019-06-19 20:16:49 UTC
SUMMARY
Upon startup of the laptop into KDE Neon (User Edition), the black splash screen with the KDE/Plasma logo lists the computer as still using Plasma 5.15.1, rather than 5.15.5, 5.16.0 or 5.16.1 through my last few updates.  The correct version (5.16.1 as of yesterday) shows on the Info screen, and when shutting down the system, the correct version of Plasma I have installed is listed on the same black/logo screen as what shows at startup.  This is not a dire issue of any sort, but I wanted to ensure it was brought to your attention.

The laptop I use is a Lenovo T420.  I do not have a screenshot to show you, but will attempt to take a pictures with my cellphone if it will assist.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Turn on laptop, select KDE Neon at Grub
2. Wait for entry splash screen.
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
Screen shows Plasma 5.15.1

EXPECTED RESULT
Expect to see Plasma 5.16.1 (my latest updated version)

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 7 on separate partition
Linux/KDE Plasma: Netrunner on separate partition, KDE Neon/Plasma version 5.16.1 
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.16.1
KDE Frameworks Version: 
Qt Version:

Laptop startup screen, showing Neon 5.15.5

Originally, I stated that the Plasma logo showed KDE version 5.15.1.  This is incorrect.  It shows 5.15.5, which is also reflected in the GRUB screen.

Info Screen for Neon, showing KDE Neon installed version

This is my info screen, which displays the currently installed version of KDE Neon (5.16.1), Frameworks (5.59.0), and QT Version (5.12.3).
Comment 3 Mark Hughey 2019-06-26 00:33:00 UTC
As of latest update I ran (Sunday), the splash screen now correctly shows Neon 5.16.1.  This is also reflected on the GRUB menu.

I am unsure whether this was due to the latest update from KDE Neon, or the latest update from Netrunner, which caused an OS Probe.
