Both kdebase and kdelibs would NOT install using MandrakeUpdate on my sys to update to v -20 & v -17.2, respectively,(no core dumps though) so I downloaded them (with ncftp binary get) and used kpackage to install. They installed w/o a hitch and 'appear' to be working quite nicely. So far, so good! Thnx CM.
