Re: KDE 2.1b1 and apt-get
When can we expect to be able apt-get KDE 2.1b1? Or if it's available, what do we need to add to our /etc/apt/sources.list? where have you been? KDE 2.1b1 has been out for a while and has been apt-get-able for almost as long...and as of a couple days ago KDE 2.1b2 has been apt-get-able. You really need to learn to check the archives.

Since the FTP server at kde.tdyc.com ceased, I've been using the following sources.list line: deb http://kde.tdyc.com/debian potato main crypto optional beta However, when I do an upgrade I'm not getting the new packages installed. For example, my installed kdm is version 2.1-20010101-0, which it thinks is the latest, while the current one on kde.tdyc.com is version 2.1-beta2-0128-0. Is this an issue with the version numbering, with it getting the preference wrong? Or have I stuffed up somewhere? -- .

I only have one machine (Power Macintosh 7300/200) to do the builds. Since I have been spoiled with my 2.0.1 based KDE environment, I did not want it to go away for the several days it normally takes me to finish the build process. Solution... add some more disk space and have Debian potato KDE 2.0.1 installation and another install that will become KDE 2.1beta2. Well, the first new disk I bought was DOA. I was able to exchange it for a new one today, but I am now even further behind. Hopefully, I will have a complete set by the end of the week. Now, a survey question for the audience, who is using the powerpc packages from kde*.tdyc.com and does anyone have a priority order? Rick -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
