Yep, it's Woody debs we're after.  In case anyone wants to suggest we 
just go for 3.2 instead, _my_ stance on this is simply that 3.1.4 is 
rock-solid on my machines, and only lacks the VCF security fix :
 http://www.kde.org/info/security/advisory-20040114-1.txt
whereas people are currently reporting a number of more or less painful 
issues with 3.2 on Woody (Kmail 1.6 bugs, packaging faults, cosmetic 
issues, "could not start kdeinit", etc.).

I'd like to join the collective shakedown effort (and play with all the 
new geegaws), but just don't have the time right now - I must contain 
myself and wait a while.

If all this is now solved, could some kind person post a Woody-KDE 
state-of-the-nation please ?
