Frameworks/Coinstallability
KDE Frameworks 5 and Plasma 2 co-installability
It should be possible to install a kde frameworks 5 runtime alonside a kdelibs 4 runtime so apps can use either one
Many paths have changed by default so there is no clash
- kdelibs 4 CONFIG_INSTALL_DIR: /usr/share/config
- kf5 CONFIG_INSTALL_DIR: /etc/xdg
- kdelibs 4 DATA_INSTALL_DIR: /usr/share/apps
- kf5 DATA_INSTALL_DIR: /usr/share
HTML_INSTALL_DIR does clash as /usr/share/doc/HTML to allow khelpcentre to find docs from both kdelibs4 land and kf5 land
kio
- /usr/share/doc/HTML/en/kioslave/ will clash unless distros change docs install path (as debian does)

kdelibs4support
- /usr/share/doc/HTML/en/kdebugdialog will clash, manual merge request
http://mail.kde.org/pipermail/kde-frameworks-devel/2014-April/015013.html
kactivities
- kactivitymanagerd clashes, seems upstream want it to stay that way https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/115602/
khelpcenter
This does not co-install with kdelibs4 version, but is not intended to.

clashing files with kde 4's kde-runtime:
- /usr/share/man/man1/kdesu.1
- /usr/share/doc/HTML/en/kdesu/index.docbook
- /usr/bin/keditfiletype
- /usr/share/kde5/services/filetypes.desktop
- /usr/bin/kmimetypefinder
- /usr/bin/ktraderclient
- /usr/bin/kioclient
- /usr/bin/kdecp
- /usr/bin/kdemv
- /usr/bin/kde-open
- /usr/bin/ksvgtopng
- /usr/bin/kstart
kwin
clashing files with kde4 kwin:
- /usr/bin/kwin (due to be renamed?)
- /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libkdecorations.so
- libkwinglutils.so.1 (needs sobump anyway?)
- libkwineffects.so.1 (needs sobump anyway?)
- libkwinxrenderutils.so.1 (needs sobump anyway?)
- kwin_update_default_rules can be removed
- /usr/share/sounds/pop.wav
- /usr/share/doc/HTML/en/kcontrol/windowspecific
Question: why did kwin.png and kcmkwm.png move from apps to actions? They might need renamed apart from this.
