does that mean, that this situation should never appear when I only 
refer to sarge pakages in my apt sources?

And also the kdelibs4c2* libs should not be available with "stable" tree.

I will also take a look at the archives you mentionend.

Yes. Stable doesn't have kdelibs4c2*. How have you obtained these 
packages? Open your /etc/apt/sources.list and check that there are only 
stable repositories.
For "archives" I mean mailing list archives.. I just would like to be 
more clear..


I suppose that VariCAD is linked against sarge's KDE packages and not 
the newest one.



But that should not make any application unusable, I hope.

A possible solution is reinstall all sarge kde packages and remove 
the newest ones. I don't know if this will break some user profile 
configuration files.



Sigh,
but that will be the best solution for me and my customers.

..

If this CAD is opensource you can rebuild the package against 
kdelibs4c2. But it's worth the time? It's a version that is discarded in 
favour of the c2a version for many reasons.



Thank's very much for your reply,

Hi KDE/DEB-users,

I'm using Sarge for working in professional CAD area (VariCAD) and and 
also suporting this, but now I have the problem, that I cannot install 
the newest version because of package conflicts.


The main problem is, that VariCAD is linked against kdelibs4, but I've 
installed kdelibs4c2. When scanning through dependecies I would have 
to do almost a complete reinstallation of the KDE with many packages 
removing which I'm using intensively (in addition to my CAD system).


My questions are:
1. Why are there 2 conflicting libraries which "do the same?", when just
   looking on the package descriptions?
   kdelibs4c2: core libraries for all KDE applications
   kdelibs4: KDE core libraries

2. Is there a less painfull method to install VariCAD without
   reeinstalling almost the complete KDE part?

Bye ans thanks in advance,
