Re: KDE 3 unoffical packages
To be quite honest I was a brave soul and removed 2.2.2 first (apt-get
remove kdelibs3). I figured I can always reinstall it if something goes
wrong. When installing the new KDE3 packages, I had to remove a few more
packages to satisfy some dependencies (nothing that I really needed).
I did not take offense on sending your reply to me directly, I'm very
new to mailing lists myself. I'm running a website at
http://www.linuxjunior.org if you need some Linux-related support.
