As someone said before, have you upgraded mandrake_desk and menu before starting. when installing kdebase or any other package with an extra devel package it will say that the older kdebase-devel is dependent on it. I force the install and then install the devel package. As for the other dependency problems I found it a matter of taking note and tracking down the libs etc that were required. Look at the error messages carefully. they tell you exactly what the problem is. I've been using the latest packages from cooker on top of the 7.2 mandrake beta that had the 1.93 packages. After a lot of fiddling and dowloading extra little bits it has all been worth it. My system is very stable and I haven't enjoyed myself so much in years Keep persevering, its worth it Grant On Tue, 17 Oct 2000, you wrote: > > Dunno, but I am going to reinstall 7.1 on my system since trying to get > kde2 to work seems impossible on my system too.
