Where is KDELIBS4?
Many packages in my KDE 3.1b2 system cannot be installed because of a dependency on kdelibs4. The only kdelibs4 that is available from my apt-sources is kdelibs4-dev 3.0.1. This is incompatible with KDE 3.1b2. How do I resolve this? I have the shakti.cx line in my apt sources file. -- Comments are most appreciated, Bob

I have the shakti.cx line in my apt sources file. kdelibs4 is "provided" by my libraries, but since some applications depend on a special version of kdelibs4, and that can't be "provided" that does not work always work. For kde 3.1 rc2 I have made a meta-package kdelibs4 that should be able to solve the problem. But not always, since the KDE libraries have changed since KDE 3.0. -- Karolina

I took away some checks for my early KDE 3.1 beta package in KDE 3.1 rc2, which appears like a bad move, so I have put it back again (not on ftp yet). Sometimes I have big problems making apt-get understand that an upgrade actually is possible. It is not always very smart and helpful about what is actually wrong. In those cases, removing the a package like here with 'dpkg -r --force-depends kdelibs-bin' and then doing an "apt-get -f install" suddenly makes apt-get able to install without conflicts. -- Karolina
