Which KDE source
Hello
Why are the KDE source-packages always different ?
The official bz2 files (convert to gzip (bunzip *.bz2;gzip *)) are
different than the file's from kde.tdyc.com and they are different from
the Debian mirrors (in the pool directory)?! (but all have the same name
*-final.orig.tar.gz)
If you have a potato system with some upgraded packages (like xfree
4.0.2 from woody etc.) and like to recompile KDE yourself, you have to
download KDE 2.1 3 times (it is nog a pure potato system, so the potato
packages may not work, so also download the woody packages and the bzip2
file's are the same all the other users (developers of other KDE
software, like KwinTV, etc etc) use, so also download them).
It also takes a lot of time for the maintainer to make 2 different
.tar.gz packages when there is a official package (the official bz2
files (bunzip => gzip for the Debian policy))
I can understand the patch file's are different for potato and woody
(libc6 and other package differences) but that are only files from a few
Kb's
So which source have I to download when I want to compiler KDE on Debian
2.2 with Xfree 4.0.2 and some more Debian 2.3 packages like dpkg and
more deb-development packages (libc6 is from potato) ?
I also want to get a very 'official' KDE 2.1 so I can compile 99.99% of
the KDE software without problems.
Now I have compiled kwintv fine, but running kwintv is impossible

(I think that the last one is because of the difference bewteen the
source of KDE 2.1 from Debian 2.2 and 2.3)
