I have for a while had both kde.tdyc.com and archives.progeny.com in my (ever growing) sources.list. This has not been a problem until today. I have got up-to-date debs of X Windows (4.0.1) and the latest kde2 builds while maintaining potato's stability (well almost :-)
Today, when I did my daily dist-upgrade, I noticed that I was downloading a new libqt2.2. This is normally good, even more bugs cleaned out, but that was not the case today. I saw that the package was coming from progeny. It made konqueror crash, and crash, and crash... I found out that this was a older package with a higher version number. What should I do? My world was falling into pieces (well, I might be exaggerating a small bit) I had to manually download the right deb and "downgrade", then I put libqt2.2 on hold. What I am wondering is, is there a better way to do this? I could of course hack together a script that changes the sources.list, unholds, updates, upgrades, holds libqt2.2, changes the list back, updates and upgrades, but I'd rather not do this. I could also, of course, do it all manually, but that wouldn't be so much fun :-) I guess what I'm trying to say is that progeny has hijacked libqt2.2 and that maybe someone would like to know this and ask them to use version numbers lower than tdyc's, or in some other mysterious way make the problem go away (or tell me how).
