KDE in AMD64 etch
I have just installed debian AMD64 etch on a new system (I use etch on my
non-AMD systems). The installation (using a daily build netinst kit) went
fine. However, I can't install KDE. I get the following errors:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
kdelibs4c2a: Depends: libcupsys2 (>= 1.1.23-1) which is a virtual package.
libboost-python1.33.0c2a: Depends: python2.3 (>= 2.3) which is a virtual
package.
python: Depends: python2.3 (>= 2.3.5-1) which is a virtual package.
kig: Depends: python2.3 (>= 2.3) which is a virtual package.
kdelibs-bin: Depends: libcupsys2 (>= 1.1.23-1) which is a virtual package.
The discussions on the mailing list last month seemed to suggest that KDE was
now fine. Is that only in sid? Any ideas on when KDE will arrive in etch?
Is the only option, if you want to use a new AMD64 workstation, to use sid? I
don't think using sarge is an option because I don't think it has support for
the nVidia components on the ASUS A8N-SLI motherboard I am using (am I
wrong?).
