You should also upgrade qt to the version found with the kde pkgs you downloaded........It is important to use the qt version that kde was compiled against.....
Instead of using swaret to upgrade those pkgs you already downloaded, just use the command 'upgradepkg' (part of Slackware's pkgtools)..................in fact put all the kde pkgs, arts, quanta, and qt in the same directory and run this command from the directory they are located in:
Code:
'ls' xfree86*.tgz qt*.tgz arts*.tgz kde*.tgz koffice*.tgz quanta*.tgz | while read i ; do upgradepkg $i ; done
That should upgrade all the pkgs for you automatically...........I suggest you run this while in text mode, not while in kde....and as root user
If you prefer, you can make a script from this and use it anytime you want to upgrade kde in the future..........copy-n-paste the following in a text file and name it "upgradekde":
Code:
#!/bin/sh
#********************************************************************************
# Name: upgradekde
'ls' xfree86*.tgz qt*.tgz arts*.tgz kde*.tgz koffice*.tgz quanta*.tgz | while read i ; do upgradepkg $i ; done
Save it to the directory with the pkgs, and make it executable (chmod a+x upgradekde). Then log out of kde completely to text mode, 'cd' to the directory with the kde pkgs and this script, and run the script:
./upgradekde
---thegeekster
NOTE: Make sure you don't have more than one version of each pkg in the same directory
Also, this will work in reverse..............'upgradepkg' doesn't track versions, it just replaces one pkg with another one, regardless whether you want to upgrade or downgrade. So if something goes wrong you can use the script to replace version 3.2.2 with the version 3.2.1 pkgs you are currently using.....

EDIT: Included 'xfree86 *.tgz' and 'koffice*.tgz' to the above commands...
