KDE Not Upgrading
I added deb http://download.kde.org/stable/3.1.1/Debian stable main to my apt sources.list so I can upgrade to KDE 3.1.1. Ran apt-get update to make sure everything was in order (had to run it a few times to run out a few duplicate entries), getting a successful update message. So I run 'apt-get upgrade' to (finally) upgrade to the latest KDE (my mouth is drooling for the new KDE, I've been waiting to use it since it was released). Everything looks like it's going to be okay. 3 upgrades (a bit small, I admit), with a list of files being held back (no reason given). Once the three packages are updated, I run apt-get upgrade again. Again I'm told that a group of files (list at end) are being held back and 45 packages weren't upgraded! Am I doing something wrong? Here is the list of packages that are being held back: jan-jr-ent:~# apt-get upgrade Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree...

Since I was getting them from ~ccheney, does that mean my currently installed packages are still newer ?? Hall -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
