Yes. On 9.3. `apt-get update`, then `apt-get -V upgrade` It will hold back 3-4 kde packages. That means upgrades are available, but apt needs more info (like a decision) from you before it can install/upgrade them. When those are upgraded fine, do `apt-get -V upgrade` again just to find out what packages are still held back, and if any dependencies were fixed automatically. Then `apt-get -V install kdebase3 kdemultimedia3` and the other kde* packages that were held back. At this point, apt will tell you what the problem is. Probably a conflict with the existing version of the package you are upgrading. Issue `apt-get -V remove kdebase3` or whatever the offending packages are. Then install the new version with `apt-get -V install kdebase3 ...` I had to remove kdevelop3 for reasons I don't recall. I also had to uninstall superkaramba. This is because as of kde 3.5, superkaramba is now part of KDE, so the new package conflicts with the old package. HTH Mark
