An updated qt5 in CentOS Stream 8 allowed us to update KDE Plasma Desktop.
I believe everything is in place and ready for use and/or testing.
This is for CentOS Stream 8 only, at this time.

=== KNOWN PACKAGE ISSUES
== UNINSTALLABLE PACKAGES
* kaccounts-providers - no signon-ui
* kigo - no gnugo
* lokalize - no translate-toolkit , needs rebuilding on python3
== UNBUILT PACKAGES
* polkit-qt5 - need branch and build of polkit-qt-1
* kde-gtk-config - needs sassc
* digikam - can't find opencv despite it being installed
== UN-UPDATED PACKAGES (but still install and run)
* kpmcore - would need a newer util-linux than available in RHEL 8
* kde-partitionmanager - would need a newer kpmcore
The KPMCore libblkid bump to 2.33.2[1] comes from an issue with
resizing logical partitions[2] that was fixed in 2.33.2[3].
It may be worth asking if this fix can be backported so that we can
relax the dependency and update kde-partitionmanager.
