[expert] urpmi, apt-get

[Marc Siegel]

Hi all,

I am a user of Mandrake 7.2 and i would like an easier time upgrading things. 
For some reason I've never been able to get MandrakeUpdate to work, btw. 

I was wondering if someone could help me figure out a good use of urpmi or 
apt-get or whatnot, for instance using the hard-to-find kde 2.1 release as an 
example?

Thanks,
Marc
