I have a relatively stock woody system with a few packages from testing and unstable installed (mainly the libc and ogg vorbis 1.0 from testing and xcdroast from unstable, installed from source) and of course a custom 2.4.20 kernel. And I have installed everything and the kitchen sink from all 7 woody CDs. I did not uninstall anything before upgrading. I have encountered the following problems upgrading from kde 2.2.2 in woody to the kde 3.1 backport packages on ktown.kde.org/~nolden: 1. The packages file was broken when I downloaded the debs (on Tuesday iirc). I had to download some qt 3.1.2 packages manually. I hear this has been fixed already. 2. A package called kmtrace wants to own a file (I think it was /usr/bin/match) which was also contained in a package called grunch. 3. A package called kdesdk-scripts wants to own a file (/usr/bin/fixincludes) which was also contained in a package called fixincludes. 4. I had various conflicts with the new kdevelop package and the old kde-i18n-* packages. 5. The libpsi-dev package conflicted with the kopete package (both new packages). 6. After the install kdm did not want to start. I did not purge the config files of the old kde2. After a dpkg-reconfigure kdm it would start, except that it only had default, failsafe and kde3 as session types. I edited the other 15 window managers manually into the config file. 7. xine-ui depends on some newer libdirectfb-$something which unfortunately conflicts with some older libdirectfb-$sthelse. So installing xine-ui would have me remove clanlib. So no more xine. I think that was all. I solved all of these by removing the old packages and deselecting libpsi-dev. Otherwise, no problems (except for the fact that artsd *still* sucks...). I also installed Xfree86 4.2.1, Mozilla 1.2.1, OpenOffice.org 1.0.2 backports and various packages from marillat.free.fr during the rest of the week and have not noticed any real problems so far.
