KDEMultimedia vs. K3B - why not both!?


Why, when I want to install the KDEMultimedia packages, does it insist on uninstalling K3B? Does the KDEMultimedia have K3B inside it?

once again, kde is undergoing a massive upgrade, installing things from kde will most likely break stuff

and better yet, how do I fix it? after an upgrade (mark all upgrades, about a week ago), it seems i'm locked out of kde...

and would this be the beginning of kde 3.4?

Huh?

KDE 3.4 has been out for weeks and weeks (and it's great)

i know that its been out!! but its not been available in the Debian apt repositories and i've heard many attempts to install it otherwise have resulted in a broken system (similar to what i have going on...)

mepis and KDE 3.4

you might try checking the forums at www.mepis-lovers.org as there are many posts dealing with the struggles with the new KDE version and Mepis.

correction to the above url: the correct url is http://www.mepislovers.org

also my best advice to you is to wait a few weeks then you can install it all once its in the repos.
