So I have to add a reference to the debian archive, like you noticed below to upgrade? I mention that I have the 8cd pack of woody also in the list! > There are many KDE2 packages that conflict with the KDE3 ones, > and these have to be removed, though some can be upgraded.

If I type aptitude on the commandline an interactive sort of aptitude appears.

So the maintainers of the experimental kde3 debs didn't planed/provide the possibility to choose between kdeX and kde3? I saw the following descriptions to use different kde-versions next to each other: http://www.kde.org/kde2-and-kde3.html http://women.kde.org/projects/coding/kde2+3.html > > My sources.list looks like: [...] > I don't see a reference to the debian archive.

I asked only for a similar solution for debian, because I compared the xml point of that description with the unsatisfied dependencies who aptitude has shown me i.e. I want to handle the dependencies with apt-get or dpkg of course! > Debian automatically > handles dependency issues.

I can solve all dependencies just by add the following lines beneath the other references in my sources.list (I mention to have already the lines for the 8cd distri, and that I new to debian): deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US stable/non-US main contrib non-free deb ftp://debian.uni-essen.de/debian/ potato main contrib non-free deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian potato main deb-src http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian potato main I use woody can I change them like this?: deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US testing/non-US main contrib non-free deb ftp://debian.uni-essen.de/debian/ woody main contrib non-free deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian woody main deb-src http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian woody main ? I summarize also that it is impossible for this moment to use kde2 and 3 together and choose them with kdm??
