Pr= obably > no problem for most people here but maybe for distributions or users.= I've recently had to add support for building CMake to kdesrc-build for= this=20 reason. This isn't a complaint per se as the work is already done, but = the=20 price of closely tracking the latest stable release of a dependency is = pretty=20 much always that it hampers development of KDE itself. 2.8.8 at least has a shot of having packages available in most distros,= that=20 would obviously not be as true for 2.8.10 (and 2.8.9 would be a questio= n as=20 well). I guess the point is that if we're going to bump the dependency to some= thing=20 that isn't broadly available from distro packages then we might as well= bump=20 the requirement to the latest release. But hopefully we only make these= bumps=20 when there are clear advantages.
