Coming about two weeks after the October 23rd release of the KDE Plasma 5.14.2 point release, the KDE Plasma 5.14.3 point release continues to improve the new firmware update functionality implemented in the Plasma Discover graphical package manager, as well as support for the Flatpak and Snap universal binary formats. Additionally, the KDE Plasma 5.14.3 update improves the Plasma Audio Volume Control applet to allow it to connect to the PulseAudio sound system with Qt 5.12 beta 3 or later, and adds the ability to swap Trash/Delete by using Shift while the menu is open in the Plasma Desktop.
