<h3>Enabling the sid repository</h3>
|
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
<p>KDE 4.2 requires some software that is not available in the Debian 5.0 "lenny" release. Therefore, it can only be installed on systems using the unstable branches.</p>
|
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
<blockquote>
|
| 21 |
<pre style="margin-bottom:0;">deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ sid main
|
| 22 |
deb-src http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ sid main</pre>
|
| 23 |
</blockquote>
|
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
<p>You should replace ftp.de.debian.org by a
|
| 26 |
<a href="http://www.debian.org/mirror/list">mirror</a> near you.</p>
|
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
<p>To enable unstable without upgrading your entire system,
|
| 29 |
<a href="http://wiki.debian.org/AptPinning">see this page</a>.</p>
|
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
<!--<h3>Enabling the experimental branch</h3>
|
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
<p>To install KDE 4.2, the experimental branch must be enabled. Add the following to <code>/etc/apt/sources.list</code>, then update APT.</p>
|
| 34 |
<blockquote>
|
| 35 |
<pre style="margin-bottom:0;">deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ experimental main
|
| 36 |
deb-src http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ experimental main</pre>
|
| 37 |
</blockquote>
|
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
<p>You should replace ftp.de.debian.org by a
|
| 40 |
<a href="http://www.debian.org/mirror/list">mirror</a> near you.</p>
|
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
<p>APT will not install packages from experimental unless specifically requested. To install a package from experimental, run the command:</p>
|
| 43 |
<pre>aptitude -t experimental install <em>package1</em> <em>package2</em> <em>package3...</em></pre>-->

<!--<h3>Upgrading installed experimental KDE 4 packages automatically</h3>
|
| 135 |
|
| 136 |
<p style="margin-bottom:0.1em;">Once you have installed all KDE 4 packages you want from experimental, you would probably like
|
| 137 |
to keep them up-to-date to the latest releases in experimental. It is easy to do that with the help of APT pinning. Just
|
| 138 |
add</p>
|
| 139 |
<p style="white-space: pre; font-family: monospace">
|
| 140 |
Package: *
|
| 141 |
Pin: release a=experimental
|
| 142 |
Pin-Priority: 101</p>
|
| 143 |
<p style="margin-bottom:0.1em;"> to your /etc/apt/preferences file (create one if it does not exist) and simple
|
| 144 |
<span style="font-weight:bold">aptitude (or apt-get) dist-upgrade</span> will always automatically upgrade
|
| 145 |
<span style="text-decoration: underline">only</span> the packages <span style="text-decoration: underline">you
|
| 146 |
have installed from experimental</span> to the latest versions in the experimental repository. Other packages,
|
| 147 |
which are available in experimental but their experimental versions have not been manually installed by you,
|
| 148 |
won't be automatically pulled in by <span style="font-weight:bold">dist-upgrade</span>. Consult
|
| 149 |
<span style="font-weight:bold">apt_preferences(5)</span> manual page for more information about pinning.</p>

<h3>Co-installable packages</h3>
|
| 154 |
|
| 155 |
<p>You can co-install along your KDE 3 packages the following KDE 4 packages: <em>kdelibs5, kdepimlibs5, kdebase-runtime</em></p>
|
| 156 |
|
| 157 |
<p>This is useful if you want to keep your KDE 3 enviroment but want to use a KDE 4 application like okular or even konsole. But remember KDE 4 apps will not integrate in your KDE 3 desktop so well as the current KDE 3 do.</p>
