Ekuqaleni kuka Mashi sabhala i-athikili mayelana nokuthile okwakulungiselelwa iphrojekthi yakwa-K. Ngokulandela izixhumanisi nombhalo abawunikelayo, saqonda ukuthi kwakuyiphakheji yezinhlelo zokusebenza ezazingangeni ezinhlelweni ze-KDE, yize zazihlobene ne-KDE, kodwa zazama ukusidida, futhi baphumelela, noma senza iphutha. Okuzokwenzeka kusuka kulo Ephreli ukuthi Izicelo ze-KDE zizobizwa I-KDE Gear.
Ukukhuluma iqiniso kufanele ngikhulume Lesi sihloko I-9to5Linux okuyiyona engikhiphe ekungabazeni isikhathi esingaphezu kwesonto, lapho uJonathan Riddell umphakathi ikhava kubhulogi yakhe. Yilapho echaza khona ukuthi Izicelo ze-KDE zizoqanjwa kabusha ngokuthi i-KDE Gear, okuthile okuthi mhlawumbe uzomemezela ngomhlaka 22 Ephreli olandelayo, lapho inguqulo elandelayo yesethi yezinhlelo zokusebenza ihlelelwe ukukhishwa. Emasontweni adlule, iphrojekthi iqhubekile nokubhekisa kwiphakheji yesikhathi esizayo njenge-KDE Izicelo 21.04.
Ama-KDE Gears azokhishwa ngo-Ephreli 22
URiddell uyingxenye ye- Iphrojekthi ye-KDE futhi kugxile kakhulu ekwakhiweni kwe-neon ye-KDE kunaseKubuntu, kepha izinhlelo zokusebenza ziyefana kuzinhlelo zombili ezisebenzayo, ngale kokuthi zifika ngaphambi kwesikhathi ku-neon kunakuhlelo oluyingxenye yomndeni osemthethweni we-Ubuntu. Unjiniyela uchaza ukuthi:
I-KDE Gear yigama elisha lenqwaba yohlelo lokusebenza (nemitapo yolwazi nama-plugins) wephrojekthi ofuna ukuthi umkhankaso wokuqalisa ususwe. Lapho nje yayibizwa nge-KDE nje, yabe i-KDE SC, yabe Izicelo ze-KDE, bese kuba isevisi yokuqalisa engavunyelwe futhi manje siyiqoqa futhi njenge-KDE Gear.
Kukhulunywa ngakho kubakaki ukuthi i-KDE Gear nayo "iyimitapo yolwazi nama-plugins", ngakho-ke ifunda njenge bayethula, Angikwazi ukuyeka ukucabanga ukuthi zizofaka phakathi Izinhlaka kuphakheji. Cishe akunjalo, kepha sizothola yonke imininingwane lapho iGear yethulwa ngokusemthethweni.
Mayelana negama uqobo, akwaziwa noma ngabe bayithathile yini le logo, ngoba okuhambisana ne-K yi- "Gear" okuyindlela i "Gear" ehunyushwa ngayo ngeSpanish. Esikwethemba ukuthi iphakethe elisha lifika ligcotshwe kahle futhi konke kuhamba kahle.
