Problems updating KDE
Hi,
Yesterday I tried to do dist-upgrade for the first
time, run into problems and would appreciate some
hints on how to solve them:
1) I have Knoppix 3.3 installed on my harddrive.
Knoppix being Debian-based, I upgraded the packages
and noticing that the KDE packages were being "kept
back" I tried a dist-upgrade.
2) Some of the packages fail to install and nothing I
have tried works so far. The errors I get are the
following:
------------------------------------------------------
knoppix@ttyp0[knoppix]$ sudo apt-get -u dist-upgrade
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct
these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
kaddressbook: Depends: libkdepim1 (>= 4:3.2.2) but
it is not installed

------------------------------------------------------
So it looks like OpenOffice is interfering with the
installation of the newer KOffice. I tried to remove
OpenOffice, but apt-get won't let me until the
dependencies are fixed. Any ideas?
TIA,
Anthony
