KDE 3.2.0 -- Status of Move Into Unstable?

2004-02-15 Thread Robert Tilley
Could the more informed members of the list chime in with the current progress of KDE 3.2.0 into unstable? Does it really require such a length of time to recompile KDE for the unstable libraries or are there issues of which a non-initiate like myself is unaware? -- Comments are appreciated, B

Still doesn't work with libxrender1 ver. 0.8.3-5... Hope it'll be fixed soon, as it has the bad idea to spawn "kdeinit" processes (up to 20!) during kde use, each using ~4% of my memory. Really annoying...
