Hi all,
Just did something out of the blue, I ran apt-get -s install -t testing kde and it looked like it wanted to install all of kde 3.1.5, even though I already have it as is from knoppix. Was this a special version of kde that apt-get doesn't know that it was installed in the first place? When I checked to see if it could be removed, it says kde not installed, but it is on my hard drive and I'm using it. What's up with that? Btw, apt-get -s install -t unstable kde shows that some 98 packages need to be upgraded and 148 additional packages will be installed to upgrade to kde 3.2.1. Now, how could it suggest 98 of the kde packages needed to be upgraded from unstable when under testing it says nothing needs to be upgraded?
