As I've discussed with Andreas and Spot via private email, what needs to
happen here is for libsyncml to be downgraded to 0.4.6 to allow the 0.22
version of the opensync plugin to be built.

opensync plugins have to match the main opensync version - a 0.3
opensync plugin build would be useless now we have opensync 0.22 - and
the 0.22 libopensync-plugin-syncml can only build with libsyncml 0.4.6
or earlier. This is fine, though, as libsyncml has no other consumer, at
present it only exists for the opensync plugin to use.

So we just need to downgrade libsyncml to 0.4.6 and
libopensync-plugin-syncml to 0.22 and then all will be OK for F11.

It would be nice if someone could upgrade libwbxml to 0.10.5 at the same
time too, btw - https://libwbxml.opensync.org/

For the others Alex noted: libopensync-plugin-kdepim should be dropped
entirely, there is no usable plugin we can yet package (it will return
in future releases once opensync 0.3/0.4 is usable). vformat, ditto,
IIRC it only exists in opensync 0.3/0.4, not 0.2, so the package should
just be dropped for now.
