  cmake did not accept the 24.08.0 version available in the archive at the

  rebuilding the package has the potential to introduce unexpected
  changes. Bugs may have been introduced in the 24.08.1 source relating to
  the use of baloo widgets, or the simple act of rebuilding against
  possibly changed libraries and toolchain since the current
  4:24.08.0-3ubuntu1 upload may have unexpected consequences.

  OBSERVED RESULT
  
  - The Information Panel (which was previously shown in my Dolphin
    instance) is not shown anymore.
  - There is no Information entry in the Show Panels submenu.
  - There is no Information entry in the Keyboard Shortcuts.
  
  EXPECTED RESULT
  
  - The Information Panel (which was previously shown in my Dolphin
    instance) is still shown.

  SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
  KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.5
  KDE Frameworks Version: 6.6.0
  Qt Version: 6.6.2
  
  ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
  This is very similar to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=489773 on Neon. It was fixed by a package rebuild so it seems to me this needs a package rebuild by kubuntu.
