Re: What's best quick fix for broken kde metapackage?
Hi ben,
I have ready your message (below).
I am sending you this note because, based on your very last comment below, I am
concerned that somewhere along the communication channel part of the message I
sent to you did not get to you. (See below.)

That last statement does not make sense to me. I did quote them. (It appears
in my message, at the end, after a line of "="'s.) The quote came through to
me in the bounce of my message, through the list, back to me. It is also
clearly shown in Konq at the archive page:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-kde/2002/debian-kde-200202/msg00200.html
I mention this because if someone reading my message did not see that part,
they would have an incomplete understanding of that message.
In order for me to get you the best considered response possible, please
re-check my message in your mail program, and on that web page. Please then
reply to this message letting me know either:
1) That you do now see that I quoted your full message,
and the method I used in doing so, or
2) clarifying your statement above.
Thanks.
