| Reading Package Lists... Done
| Building Dependency Tree... Done
| Note, selecting kdebase-cvs instead of kdebase
| Package kdebase-cvs has no available version, but exists in the

| This typically means that the package was mentioned in a dependency and

| of sources.list
| E: Package kdebase-cvs has no installation candidate
|
| Does this mean that it is a work in progress? If so when will it be
| available?
it probably means that the package is obsolete; IIRC, there were KDE
.debs before the licensing issues were brought up. (the QT license is
not considered a `free license' by the Debian project, so it cannot be
included in Debian.)
