KDE to Make Wines — Using KDE Software on Enterprise Desktops a Return on Experience
summary
De Bortoli Wines runs hundreds of KDE desktops for over 10 years on Ubuntu 22 with in-house patches and relies on Plasma Desktop. Work uncovers concrete fixes: implement overprint preview and other PDF test-suite fixes in Okular, repair save-on-network for files on CIFS mounts by patching KIO and ultimately a kernel CIFS driver bug, add aggressive directory‑listing caching, and document that many users still use the terminal for ERP tasks.
