[Bug 1938894] Re: [SRU] tracking bug for plasma 5.18.6 & 5.18.7 & 5.18.8 bugfix updates

** Description changed:

  [SRU] tracking bug for plasma 5.18.6 & 5.18.7 bugfix update
  
  Only source packages from 5.18.6, 5.18.7 and 5.18.8 that actually
  contain bugfixes are included in this SRU. All other sources packages
  will stay at the current archive versions.
+ 
+ 5.18.6 changelog: https://kde.org/announcements/changelogs/plasma/5/5.18.5-5.18.6/
+ 5.18.7 changelog: https://kde.org/announcements/changelogs/plasma/5/5.18.6-5.18.7/
+ 5.18.8 changelog: https://kde.org/announcements/changelogs/plasma/5/5.18.7-5.18.8/
+ 
+ [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 5.18 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 changelog:
+   - 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.
