run apt upgrade on mobile when normal neon has a newer version/release of kwin, reboot, kwin
should start normally
low level: kwinglutils12 should be held back from apt upgrade as long as no rebuild of kwin-wayland-backend-hwcomposer
is available

the dependency could also be added to the common package, then it would apply for all backends

Oh oh oh, I forgot to actually read this.
Yes, this in theory applies to all backends, but I am not sure what the fix here is. ABI changes in Git? If so this would be a forever diff against neon because =binary:Version probably makes no sense outside git builds.
Also, shouldn't the mobile repo have a higher priority to prevent a kwin from neon to outscore mobile? Even when that has a higher version.
There may be a dynamic, albeit more complicated, solution to this problem that could be doing via the tooling though. Probably intercepting dh_shlibdeps calls and forcing an override on them to force all packages of $source to be ==version. That would then also apply to all software. This problem should not only affect kwin, but anything with plugins.

This could also be added to common, doesn't matter for me, would just like to have it fixed
I assume this will always stay a diff to neon anyway as there is no hwcomposer on normal neon?
