Re: KDE version in Lenny: KDE 3.5.9 vs KDE 4.1
Am Freitag, 6. Juni 2008 schrieb Pino Toscano: Right now, the only way to have KDE installed by default in a new Debian installation is with a cd1-kde iso. I'll start to believe to Debian+KDE as potential linux desktop only when I see KDE considered in Debian at the same level of GNOME. So far, the desktop independent distro motto of Debian is a pure joke, Debian is a GNOME distro just like Ubuntu. You can be assured that with corporate users, the decision process about IT deployments is more sophisticated than let's take this Linux CD, click on 'Desktop', and see what happens. -- http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-kde-talk

I'd imagine you will simply have the new kontact without any mail functionality, and you can continue to use the old kmail. Which would be weird but not implausible during the transition period. A conflict would simply cause the old kmail to be uninstalled, which would not benefit kontact's mail functionality one way or another. -- http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-kde-talk

Not only renamed from kde4-development, also address #484855 and convert it in what its name says. Well, being able to say apt-get install kde would still be very handy. -- http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-kde-talk

If it turns out a few too many things get added to recommends for some people's tastes, they can just remove them. Yeah, moving kdegames and kdeedu to recommends would seem to do what I would like to use. -- http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-kde-talk

I think the kde package should be strongly related to what upstream ships when they say new KDE version released. That is the rule for pretty much all other packages, after all. Variations should then be kde-$something, again, same as other packages. The thing that Developer A and Developer B has agreed upon? The thing that Developer C and Developer D has agreed upon? Whan when users wants more? Heh, what about a kde-80-20 package that installs the 20% most popular KDE- related packages based on popcon, which should then be enough for 80% of users. ;-) -- http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-kde-talk
