(http://calc.cx/kde.txt seems pretty clear Chris intends the packages for Sid, but what do I know?) However, if you have kde3.geniussystems.net in your sources.list and pinning set up properly, it should install. Especially since you appear to have installed arts, kdelibs* and kdebase* sucessfully. If all else fails, download what you want manually and install with dpkg. There are quite a few : dpkg -l|grep 3.0.2-0|egrep 'nl shows 110 KDE packages installed, and that's not including a half dozen 1.0.2-0 arts packages. What that should be for specifically tracking KDE3 and only that when running Woody, and what is required I don't know.

Re: KFontinstaler crashes
Any of you have tried to configure antialiased fonts to exlude a size range?, for example exclude from 8 to 12, when I click Save changes KControl crashes, althow I get the following line written in ~/.xftconfig: match any size 8 any size 15 edit antialias = Nil; But ALL fonts are antialiased, and small fonts shouldn't be! This turned out to be known KDE bug #44411 that can worked around by manually replacing Nil with false. - Jarno -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Hi All,

From my point of view it is never the wrong time thinking about how things
could be improved ;)
If not: Is there someone who intend to work on that kind of
packaging KDE?
Depends. Maybe this is more related to the packaging policy? There are quite
a few possible mechanisms that would support this kind of functionality. See
the various versions of gcc co-existing with each other. It's a lot of
patching and work prefixing each binary with the version number. Doing this
on a directory level is better from my point of view.
But maybe there is something more general about the Debian packaging policy
that needs discussing? Should such substantial projects like kde or gnome
(sorry if I missed out on _your_ project here ;) really be packaged in such a
rigid manner? Often one needs to go back a version, or use a different one
because a crucial feature has been broken in the new release. I've
encountered that scenario multiple fold.
In the particular case of kde3 (even if some parts are alpha) it would be very
useful if test packages could co-exist with the stable and well-tested
version. It would also (hopefully) reduce the risk of 3rd party packages
(like the unofficial debian kde3 debs) causing mayhem on the system.
I don't mind starting to work on this, but before I get my sleeves up I would
prefer having a good picture of all the issues.
It's encouraging to know that a feature such as --prefix to dpkg would be
appreciated... just not quite sure whether begging is my forte \grin{}
BTW I've got other gripes with dpkg. Like the abscence of indexes. Being
able to query which packages are in a logical group (ie dpkg -l -g editors,
listing all packages that belong to the editors group for eg). The current
partitioning scheme is way too general for the number of packages debian
handles nowadays. (Was ok in the early days).
Still, the debian packaging system is still the best around IMO.

Woody
Hi I know this one has been asked before but I couldn't find a reference to it in my Debian mail folders. I've just installed Woody into my notebook and it seems to be working fine. Only thing that I want to change is that I'd like to apt-get upgrade to KDE 3. Can anyone explain the line to put into /etc/apt so that my notebook can just pull the stuff off the net and install it. -- Thanks Richard www.sheflug.co.uk -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

From what I know it takes long to get a feature into
(debian-base-infrastructure). Which is understandable. I suggest if want
to do it then go first to the relevant mailing list/maintainers and ask
around.

afaik aptitude or one of the newer apt-frontends has this. It's an index
that's maintaned separately. Have not checked, just heard/read it.
