Re: KDE: krdb missing! Help!
I always put unstable (slink) before stable. So if it isn't in slink, I must have gotten it from Stable.

KDE: krdb missing! Help!
There's something wrong with my KDE installation (I use the standard hamm packages). 'krdb' is missing (and if I run startkde in X, it says: 'startkde: krdb: command not found' 'find -name *krdb*' in / as root doesn't yield anything. How can I fix this? I installed all the kde packages, including kdelibs0g-dev.

Try removing kdebase first. Dpkg will complain about dependencies, so you'll need to override them. What version of kdebase are you installing? Still doesn't work. I purged kdebase, and all of its dependencies, and re-installed it, but still the same error. I use the 980312-8 version in the /hamm/contrib/binary-i386/x11 dir. I read about a newer version on the list, but I can't find that info now. Do you know of it? I did visit that ftp site, but I couldn't download anything... something was down.

I believe the version of 1.0 is 980710 or something like that. I looked for the .deb files on ftp.kde.org but they were not there! They should have been in ftp://ftp.kde.org/pub/kde/stable/latest/distribution/deb/hamm/binary-i386/ but they weren't. I'm not sure where you need to look in order to find the current kde .debs. Email the Debian package maintainer. You should find his address in /usr/doc/kdebase or something.
