Re: Problem with upgrading to KDE 3.1.1 on Debian woody



A Dissabte 29 Març 2003 14:05, Ralf Nolden va escriure:

Hi, 

I have a woody r0 with kde3.1.0 from ktown (I did an download and I construct 
a cd). On monday I did an update of my box from kde3.1.0 to kde3.1.1

After do the upgrade my kde crash every time I try to run any program of kde, 
kdm first.

On tuesday I was looking on the list and I found that R (Chandra) had the same 
problems as I. First I downloaded the r1 upgrade cd and upgrade my bot to r1.

After I did a apt-get dist-upgrade as Ralf said. Also I check, because I had 
some suspicious that maybe I did some mistake with the packages and I merge 
the qt _3.1.2-0woody10_, but it wasn't, so this isn't the problem.

R (Chandra) said that he did a reinstall and all stand bad again.
So,

I have a kde 3.1.1 disaster in my home box and please I would need some help 
because I don't know what to do. 

Please, any idea?

Regards,

Leo
