Close but no cigar!
I tried to update using the entire directory of kde2.1 and the command
"urpmi *.rpm"
There were several other dependances which needed to be fulfilled . . .
unfortunately, it asked for a package called qt2-2.3.7-develop which I
can't seem to find - another dead end.
I appreciate people like Chris making the extra effort to bring us
something cool before it's officially released, but a bit of step-by-step
instructions showing how he got it to work would be of great help!
My two cents worth . . . Oh well, I'll wait for the next Mandrake release,
this is burning up more time than I expected . ..
Cheers,
Robert
