Re: Installing task-kde problems.

You'll need to change apt-get to point at the "testing" debian-arm release
rather than "unstable".

In debian parlance unstable means just that, testing is the code for the
next stable release.

To get kde you need to apt-get kde-base and, if you want anti-aliased
fonts freetype2 (or you could try libfreetype6) and xfonts-scalable or
msttcorefonts is a script for dowloading the MicroSoft fonts. On my 340Mb
Microdrive I cna also squeeze on koffice, konqueror, korganiser and
kmahjong. kdevelop also works, but doesn't leave me any space for doing
development :-(.

Does anyone know the reasoning for intimate defaulting to "unstable"
rather than "testing"?
