Ideal test plan in VM or other snapshotable system:
# Install ubuntu or another flavour that pulls in zero or minimal KDE packages.
# Add 'backports', 'backports-landing' (if on Artful) and 'staging-kdeapplictions' PPAs to system
# Take system snapshot
# Install an app from above list
# Test that it launches, and runs/function as intended as much as is practical.
# If not, try to determine what is wrong/missing
# Report issues/solutions here
# Restore snapshot
# Repeat
