Above-mentioned updates for our preferred desktop environment are availabe for Kubuntu 23.10 in the Kubuntu Backports PPA.
Thank you very much!
Link to the changelog for KDE Frameworks 5.111 :

You can find the installation instructions on the Kubuntu Backports PPA website, but here they are again:
Open the Konsole terminal emulator and enter
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports
sudo apt update
sudo apt full-upgrade
reboot
After this any future updates that the Kubuntu Backports PPA provide for your Kubuntu version will be automatically installed when you update your system.
As always I strongly recommend that you have prepared some way to revert your system to a previous state if something goes wrong, e.g.:
One can install ppa-purge before and use it to get rid of the Kubuntu Backports' packages again.
Or use a Timeshift system backup.
Or use LVM/ext4 with snapshots or btrfs with snapshots as your file system.
Or use a Clonezilla volume backup.
Or …
