I'm not too worried about it really LOL. A month or two isn't too long for me to wait to use KDE which I don't use often anyway. I haven't done anything major... Really the only other things I've upgraded have been mozilla (just did urpme mozilla and used mozilla's installer to put it in usr/local/) gaim (I always build gaim from source... also in /usr/local) sun java, xchat (from source), and whatever MandrakeUpdate's thrown at me. I still haven't quite gotten around to the latest kernel (since last time I checked Win4Lin didn't have a matching kernel yet) or anything major like gcc. Could it possibly be that I used the textar rpms with rpmdrake instead of d/l-ing them all in a dir and doing rpm -Uvh *? That's been how I've upgraded KDE in the past. Just seems to me like rpmdrake would do the same thing. I didn't have any failed packages and I cross referenced to make sure that any old packages I had on there were matched with upgrade packages and selected in rpmdrake. On a side note, all of the KDE apps seem to run just fine under IceWM (albeit with a much slower startup) or at least the same as they would behave under KDE (the occasional konqueror crash, etc...).
