Hi,
I've installed the 2.0-final debs of kdyc (see other posts on what apt.sources
line to use). I've got everything running almost completely stable, other
than a very occasional crash of Konqueror (only happened twice so far), and
klipper dying when you highlight stuff in Netscape (it's a known KDE bug). I
found that some packages, such as kdenetwork, are obsolete now, and you should
install the packages it was broken down into (knode and kmail, in this case).
The obsolete package has apps that crash, the newer packages work fine.
Probably the best thing to do is to install the virtual package 'task-kde',
which will install a whole slew of packages and give you a proper KDE setup.
You still might have to install some KDE packages you want that it missed, but
in general I've gotten the best results that way.
