Hi,

I'm using a 64 bit intrepid with KDE3.5 and it works well. I suppose for jaunty there are also 64 bit packages available.

I think, the packages of this KDE3.5 repo are based on the KDE packages of hardy. Tim only changed minor things like the location of the KDE files. Therefore you have the same options for package administration as in hardy. The only problem I recognized is that you cannot install the KDE3 and the KDE4 version of a program at the same time, because the manuals of the KDE3 packages are still located in the old path and therefore conflict with the manual of the KDE4 package. But If you need both packages you can force the installation (via dpkg --force-all <deb_file>).

Regards, Stefan

Hi,

Am I correct to assume the following:

• The kde 3.5 repos contain 64 bit packages as well?
• Adding the kde 3.5 repos in a standard 9.04 installation will allow me

to install individual kde 3.5 packages rather than the whole kubuntu-desktop-kde3. I just can't stand a handful of applications, like the new gwenview.

Thanks. A.B.
