So I've correctly ran Konstruct to upgrade from KDE 3.2.3. to KDE 3.3.2. And I've done the "export KDE=DIR...etc" stuff it told me too, and yet it still does not run 3.3.2.

All the KDE files are just sitting there in my /root/kde3.3.2 folder. I can run them from there, but is there anyways to actually INSTALL them?

THanks

Mandrake uses urpmi to install software. KDE 3.3.2 is at Thacs (http://anorien.csc.warwick.ac.uk/mirrors/thac/index10.1.html urpmi.addmedia thacs.rpms http://anorien.csc.w.../thac/10.1/RPMS with hdlist.cz). Use that to install KDE.

Good luck

To begin with urpmi kdebase. After that whatever you want :). Look in the Mandrake control center, software install what you want to install.

Hi I added the location above but couldn't see a way to update kde - i looked and update and install in MCC and couldn't see it. I could see the rpms in the main directory but not the kde3.3 dir

Any ideas?

Is thacs.rpms added as one of your repositories? What do you get when you type: urpmi kdebase ?.

The hdlist.cz in the base directory does not contain the rpms in the subdirectories where kde 3.3 is.....

When i try it with all respositores selected (plf, contrib, DVD,etc) I get

everything already installed message

Did that and then listed all the packages according to source in the install packages dialog and only the rpms in the main catalogue shows up....
