marc said... Anyone?
As it happens, I can't install KDE either (the package, KDE itself is working just fine) - not that I wish to. Is there documentation somewhere on how to diagnose these faults with dependencies? Or am I supposed to reinstall from scratch - just like Windows? This problem only unearthed itself after the latest large upgrade. Before that, things were working okay. > I do not have the kde meta-package installed, because I do not want kde- > amusements installed.
