Official KDevelop packages for Debian

2001-07-26 Thread Norman Jordan
I am hard at work packaging the KDEVELOP_1_4 CVS branch of kdevelop. This is basically the 2.0beta1 with hopefully fewer bugs. You can test out the packages by downloading them from http://klecker.debian.org/~njordan/kdevelop/ There are some problems with the package but I will continue to work
