And aptitude, which is among the first things I purge…

Well, what I did was first to install the metapackages, then
run dpkg-query -W | fgrep 4:4.8 | while read a b; do echo $a; done >x
then apt-get --purge install -t experimental $(<x)
then apt-mark markauto $(<x)
which mostly worked, pending other metapackages.

I’ll probably need to pull in the one or other new package,
like the printer config (I’ve *not* yet figured out how to
actually start it; that being said, I run IceWM on the work
desktop and only kontact (as we use Kolab) and Konqueror
(because it’s about 10 times as fast as M*zilla crap)).

I seem to recall a recent upload that disabled that component
anyway. In my current setup (still waiting for the groupware
components, but mail and xkcd feeds work) the feeder component
is disabled, and stuff still works.

My system also says that Nepomuk is “not operational”, but
installing virtuoso-minimal made the message that “the Soprano
Virtuoso plugin is required” (or the virtuoso soprano plugin,
don’t remember), which prevented kontact from starting at all,
go away.
