Hello,
Did something happen with KTorrent recently? I was out of town for a week and got back today and updated my Fedora 23 (x86-64) machine. Now KTorrent doesn't have the 'shutdown' plugin - the one which is used to automatically shutdown the computer when one or more torrents finish downloading.
Searching the web, I get only a discussion on arch linux forums: https://lists.archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-dev-public/2015-December/027595.h...
which basically says that kdebase-workspace package from KDE4 is being dropped and kTorrent has to be rebuilt without linking against it which results in loss of the shutdown plugin.
Did something similar happen on Fedora too?
Installed packages:
ktorrent.x86_64 4.3.1-19.fc23 ktorrent-libs.x86_64 4.3.1-19.fc23 libktorrent.x86_64 1.3.1-15.fc23
PS: I hope this is not related: http://osdir.com/ml/kde-commits/2015-12/msg04246.html
Thanks,
Syam

Yes, it's omitted on purpose, but we *do* still have kde4 libkworkspace available after all.
We could bring the plugin back... do you know if it works with plasma5?

I think it does. I was using it till recently. But I can't be very sure if it was after F23 or before that. I believe it was on F23 itself.

I downloaded both RPMs, installed and ran KTorrent. But the plugin is still not to be found.
