I too ! Waiting to beginning of 2013, maybe more, is too long ... Actually, on Wheezy (unstable) the package KDE = 4.9 or less ? André ___ This message is from the kde mailing list.

I will see to migrate to Ubuntu. I tried to compile the package KDE 4.9, success with QT, some packages "dev", and, at a moment, the system asks for some "kde-headers" (?) ... without more precision : blocked ! I need KDE 4.9, because I use Kmail and the bugs have been resolved with the 4.9 version. I hope that Wheezy will be prompted released or avalaible even in testing ... Now I use TDE (Trinity Desktop Environment), seems to be KDE 3.X and works good even kmail. See you. andré ___ This message is from the kde mailing list.
