Any ROSA Linux users here?


I've been using Rosa Linux for a while. This morning the "software updates available" icon appeared and it seems to want to 'update' KDE from version 4.14.8 to 4.11.20.
That doesn't seem quite right, somehow.
Anyone know anything about this?

EDIT
It appears to be just a subset of the KDE libraries. The list is long, but total size is only 37MB. So I'm guessing it's related to only part of KDE's functionality.

I'm trying out Rosa.Fresh.7 on a Live USB key as I write this. So far so good except that settings apart from the initial localisation appear to be not working. Usually in a Live environment, settings can be changed and held in memory but not with Rosa. Clicking on Print settings for example to see if my printer is supported out of the box results in nothing except a return to the desktop. I don't know if I will install it on my external SSD without seeing if my printer is supported or whether it can be configured. But that is my only niggle so far.

I downloaded the iso torrent using Transmission, and wrote the iso using the Disks restore function.

Incidentally, the download link on the Rosa website goes to the version 6 downloads and you have to go to root and then the R7 directory to get the latest version.
