Exactly. apt-get install kde complains that koffice is needed, which complains that kivio is needed, which complains that python-base is needed but isn't avialable. Technically I guess it isn't kde which is broken - it's kivio. I have python1.5 installed and python-base no longer exists, so I suspect that forcing the install of kivio would work but I haven't tried it yet. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.3ia Charset: noconv iQB1AwUBO+muwzA1uBpee9v5AQGGzgL/R+j3gppbDVE7JcGIOKctcHeC6Q4OzDml my4qyeCyvCwSpscLsBemhntgZXo6OlG60XYdBGdma01FURWFKFfAfdSNUZfk/tWg qVmX+IIi2OoLN/7us5bVSWbePpzHGjkA =MOLc -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
