Public bug reported:

[SRU] tracking bug for plasma 5.24.5 & 5.24.6 bugfix update

Only source packages from 5.24.5 and 5.24.6 that actually contain
bugfixes are included in this SRU. All other sources packages will stay
at the current archive versions.

In some cases where automated version bumps in source packages
cmakelists.txt have result in an necessary dependency bump, this has
been lowered back to the available version with a one line patch.

5.24.5 changelog: https://kde.org/announcements/changelogs/plasma/5/5.24.4-5.24.5/
5.24.6 changelog:https://kde.org/announcements/changelogs/plasma/5/5.24.5-5.24.6/

[Impact]

 * Without this update, general users who are not inclined or able to
add our backports/update ppa will not receive this bugfix release of the
Plasma 5.24 LTS series

 * Providing this bugfix release via the official update pocket in the
archive will ensure that the bugfixes here reach and benefit most of our
users. This is particularly important for a Kubuntu and Plasma LTS
release

[Test Case]

 * General tests:
  - Does plasma desktop start as normal with no apparent regressions over the current archive versions?
  - General workflow - testers should carry out their normal tasks, using the plasma features they normally do, and test common subsystems such as audio, settings changes, compositing, desktop affects, suspend etc.

 * Specific tests:
  - Check the changelogs:
  - Identify items with front/user facing changes capable of specific testing. e.g. "[weather] Fix weather Notices tab not showing."
   - Test the 'fixed' functionality.

[Where problems could occur]

 * As we are looking at fixes to an integrated desktop, the places and
types of problems that could occur are numerous. This could vary from
some users (say for example on some hardware) finding their desktop no
longer starts, right down to minor unintended new UI bugs. This is why
when testing it is important to not just verify the named fixes, but
carry on a normal workflow and note any issues that might be new.

Note: these updates have been available in our backports and updates ppa
for some weeks/months, and no significant issue have been brought to our
attention.
