Re: Installing Kylix on Debian Potato



I kinda feel stupid but I just answered my own question.

This site:

http://www.internatif.org/bortzmeyer/debian/apt-sources/

has a cool list of apt-sources for various problems/packages and kylix
support is in there.

Maybe somebody else will find the link useful.
