Rawhide and KDE4's preparation

Tags Applied to this Entry

Since last week, the following packages were marked as "dead.package" for rawhide:
  • kdmtheme
  • kdmtheme has just had a bug fix release (1.2.2) for F-7 and F-8.
  • marble
  • d3lphin
  • kalgebra

This means that they will be shipped with F-9 along with the KDE4 family and not as a separate package.

Kevin and Rex have already obsoleted these packages in the KDE4 packages in order to make yum update from F-8 to F-9 less painful. Well I recently upgraded from F-7 to F-8 WITHOUT any troubles.

If before F-9's release,:
* KDE3 icon sets
* KDE3 kwin decorators
haven't yet been ported to KDE4, I fear it would be time to obsolete them as well. So please, if you like a particular kwin decorator or kde3 icon set, please encourage upstream to port it. A mere simple mail to the developers might make you happy.
