I guess my real question is: can the kde3 packages located here be installed
under my 8.2 install? if not where can i find those packages?
if the lack of 8.2/ppc/contrib is a problem, when i get my T1 back up next
month i will host the packages there. i think it is pretty sad that mandrake
has to get other people to host their packages. it seems like they are
giving the bare minimum resources to keep this project alive. (but this is
looking from the outside)
thanks for the help,
mike
