+Version: 2.2.25
+Patch Version: 00
+Script Date:  2015-06-15
+-----------------------------------
+Changes:
+-----------------------------------
+New version, new tarball. Got a good fix for the kde version issue from the lads at
+#kde-devel, now using kf5-config --version  which gives similar output to kded4 --version
+
+I use this for both 4 and 5, but since 4 has worked fine for years, I'll just use this for 5
+and later.
