RE: 178 days and counting
Well that was shortlived...this is the result of apt-get update:

So........I ran apt-get upgrade with the following messages:

So I then tried apt-get dist-upgrade, which reading the man page for apt-get
states:
dist-upgrade
dist-upgrade, in addition to performing the func�
tion of upgrade, also intelligently handles chang�
ing dependencies with new versions of packages;
apt-get has a "smart" conflict resolution system,
and it will attempt to upgrade the most important
packages at the expense of less important ones if
necessary. The /etc/apt/sources.list file contains
a list of locations from which to retrieve desired
package files.
Now this is what is said by my Debian system when I run the apt-get
dist-upgrade command:
maxus:/home/maxus# apt-get dist-upgrade

Do you want to continue? [Y/n]
I answered yes to this, and it asked me to provide cdrom disk 1, and at this
point I got nervous. Why? Note that where it says the following packages
will be REMOVED it says kdelibs3. Is that not for kde 3? Or is that also
present for kde 2.2. Looking at the package lists on the Debian site, it
does have a kdelibs3 for stable, so i'm wondering if all is ok, and I can
provide the said cdrom and let it read it and do its work. After my
previous troubles i'm just very nervous and hesitant and untrusting of it
all.

Ignore post - I just tried removing the stable main and it's working
now.

mm well as I am stubborn [I hate losing, especially to a goddamn stupid
machine] - i've reinstalled debian (to ensure that anything that *may*
have
been inadvertently broken was fixed) and i'm going to give kde another
try.
I've edited my sources.list file to show:
deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 r0 _Woody_ - Official i386 Binary-7
(20020718)]/ unstable contrib main non-US/contrib non-US/main
deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 r0 _Woody_ - Official i386 Binary-6
(20020718)]/ unstable contrib main non-US/contrib non-US/main
deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 r0 _Woody_ - Official i386 Binary-5

deb http://people.debian.org/~schoepf/kde3/woody ./ stable main
deb http://ftp.au.debian.org/debian/ stable main
deb-src http://ftp.au.debian.org/debian/ stable main
deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US stable/non-US main
deb-src http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US stable/non-US main
deb http://security.debian.org/ stable/updates main
I have no idea why the cd stuff is showing as unstable - I *did*
download
stable. I am 100% positive on this. Is this how it should be??
Anyways...after updating sources.list I run:
apt-get update
And it errors out, with this following error message:
maxus:/etc/apt# apt-get update
E: Malformed line 15 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (Absolute
dist)
What have I done wrong? It looks fine to my eye (and reading a previous
post from (I think it was) Thomas indicates that it just needs to be
main.
Dave
PS I also tried:
deb http://people.debian.org/~schoepf/kde3/woody ./ main
and that didn't work either.

Use the deb source written above. The packages there will work with
woody (=stable) without requiring any libs from testing or unstable.
