sredman abandoned D21589: Duplicate Visual Studio 2017 hack for VS 2019.

Update for those watching: I have just posted a new version of the script to Invent which uses vswhere.exe to locate the installed versions of Visual Studio. I'll be abandoning this revision since IMO vswhere is the best way forward. Check it out here: https://invent.kde.org/kdevelop/kdevelop/-/merge_requests/259

Alright. Are we supposed to refresh it then everytime? Or if the count of messages decreases - a workaround maybe?

Does the deleting here refer to deleting for everyone or just deleting from the phone?

Deleting from the phone as well as from the SMS App's cache on the desktop.

This looks nice! It's probably a lot more user-friendly than just dropping the user onto a blank screen. One thing I don't like is that the onboarding screens leave out features (SMS sync, for one, but also imagine any future features which get added).

I think a new conversation button is OK, but it would be cooler to have it integrated into the current search bar.. After all, when you click the "New Conversation" button, you are just going to get a GUI panel which is basically a list of contacts with a search bar at the top!

The truth is stronger than "I would not recommend".
put() in SlaveBase-derived classes is called by the KIO library (TransferJob), so you CANNOT change the meaning of the arguments. It's part of the API/ABI for all slaves, and this cannot change until KF6.

sredman added a comment to D22727: allow kio-extras to build with mingw on win32 and remove unnecessary includes.

But, wait, this code is mixing "int permissions" (*) with the QFileDevice enum, that doesn't make any sense to me.

(*) this comes from KIO::put, which takes unix permissions on unix, not sure what it takes on Windows...

This doesn't match: unix permissions are octal (e.g. group read is 040 in octal), QFileDevice enum is hex (0x040).

Okay. I'm still unable to understand where/ how sftp::put() is called, or I would change everywhere it is called, to Qt way of permission extraction.
