That wouldn’t have worked due to the /frameworks/X.Y/portingAids layout.

Anyway, commit 026f6a42b680207a59beadf0b0b9cc1753f55605 fixes it:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ ./pre-inst-env guix refresh kross extra-cmake-modules
gnu/packages/kde-frameworks.scm:77:13: extra-cmake-modules would be upgraded from 5.39.0 to 5.40.0
gnu/packages/kde-frameworks.scm:3552:13: info: 5.39.0 is already the latest version of kross

[Message part 4 (text/plain, inline)]

Hi,

I just updated kde-frameworks to 5.28 and found that not all updates
have been discovered.

Those where the URL is following the standard schema where found:
"mirror://kde/stable/frameworks/" (version-major+minor version) "/" name
"-" version ".tar.xz"))

Those having a different name of the archive or having an additional
directory behind the first version-part have not been found.

Update found for:

    (name "extra-cmake-modules")
    (version "5.27.0")
    (source (origin
              (method url-fetch)
              (uri (string-append
                    "mirror://kde/stable/frameworks/"
                    (version-major+minor version) "/"
                    name "-" version ".tar.xz"))

Update not found for (archive-name has "5" appended):

    (name "oxygen-icons")
    (version "5.27.0")
    (source (origin
              (method url-fetch)
              (uri (string-append
                    "mirror://kde/stable/frameworks/"
                    (version-major+minor version) "/"
                    name "5" "-" version ".tar.xz"))

Update not found for (additional directory level):

    (name "kross")
    (version "5.27.0")
    (source
     (origin
       (method url-fetch)
       (uri (string-append
             "mirror://kde/stable/frameworks/"
             (version-major+minor version) "/portingAids/"
             name "-" version ".tar.xz"))
