Re: KDE Debian Installation

[Mehmet Fatih Akbulut]

hi,

first method: [assuming you have a previous version of KDE! to upgrade it!!!]
#vi /etc/apt/sources.list
insert lines below in it:
# KDE 3.5
deb http://pkg-kde.alioth.debian.org/kde-3.5.0/ ./
[ps: or you can add unstable + testing repositories in your sources.list but this time when dist-upgrade the whole system will be upgraded! so this is not a good method to install or upgrade kde;)]
save and exit.
#apt-get update
#apt-get dist-upgrade

second method : [assuming you dont have any version of KDE]
#apt-get install kde
this will install all dependencies.
[and the most important assumption in this method is : you've configured your sources.list! i mean at least you have some repositories in your list. for example :
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian stable main contrib non-free
deb-src http://ftp.debian.org/debian stable main contrib non-free]
;)

Cheers,
bye.
