Re: Upgrade to KDE 3.1

[Johan Ehnberg <johan@ehnberg.net>]

If you just have the debs, and only want to update one machine, the 
right way is to download the debs and install the using dpkg.
Then to keep up to date you might want to add the repository from where 
you got the packets from to your sources.list.

deb http://download.us.kde.org/pub/kde/stable/latest/Debian/ woody main

seems to have them.
