Package: kde Version: 4:3.1.2 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
KDE package and other related packages are lost in Sarge. This cause, unable to dist upgrade from woody, when using KDE, because incompatibility old KDE and new libraries. Packages was lost short time ago. bug report system over the web, report no package "kde" and no errors for it when I select sarge / sarge-ignore filter. When I select sid, there is ask for new stable KDE version I observe it, and every day more and more packages related to KDE are lost. * New packages are not prepared. * * Then why present packages are removed ??????? * If only to decrease number of bugs, this is very, very one big bug :( All world not change to ruins when sarge will flag "stable" after 2004/09/15-20 or later.
