of course if there is a Debian package I would install it, I was thinking more of applications for which there isn't a debian package. I haven't looked at CVS yet, and don't know anything about it other than some of the applications I was looking at at apps.kde.com don't have cvs directories. I've tried compiling and installing several applications, i.e. reading the README and INSTALL files and running ./configure etc., but I'm having trouble getting some applications to compile. I got gwenview and k3b to work, but I'm now having trouble with arson for instance. I get this when I make. Any idea what I'm missing here?
