KDE Linux Prunes Its Insecure & Unused Software

KDE Linux removed 17 insecure and unused software packages from its official repositories. The update targets packages with known vulnerabilities or no active maintenance. The change applies to the KDE Plasma desktop environment's default software collection. The move reduces attack surface and improves system stability. The decision was made by the KDE Software Infrastructure team. The update is available in the latest KDE Plasma 6.5.5 release.
