Hello Fink Beginners. In the August, 2004 issue of MacWorld magazine, Cyrus
Farivar wrote an article entitled "Hasta la Vista, Aqua."  In it he gave
instructions on how to get KDE to run on Mac OS X.  On the second page of
the article near the top of the first column, he gave the command

"sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install bundle-kde"

I received an error when I performed that command.  The error was

"unstable/main packages not found"

I've been trying to track down the solution for this error since it blocks
the completion of the entire proces outlined in the article.  The step in
the enablement of the KDE desktop is failing repeatedly and perhaps you
have a solution because I assume it must be failing for everyone trying
this.  It is the apt-get update download specified by the commands

deb http://fink.opendarwin.org/bbraun 10.3/unstable main crypto and
possibly
deb http://fink.opendarwin.org/bbraun 10.3/stable main crypto

As a result of this problem, the KDE build and install fails.  I've looked
at the http://fink.opendarwin.org page but am not knowledgeable enough to
figure out an alternative.  I emailed to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
thinking he is the author of the package but I received no response.  Can
anyone help me complete this install of KDE or just point me to another
source for the files I am missing?  You can read the magazine article
online at http://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/~cfarivar/stories/hastalavista.html.

Thanks alot,

</WS-Jeff>
