In other words, if you want your kde3 apps to keep working, you may want to remove the backport repo. Thinks like kdiff3, etc. DO NOT WORK or integrate with konqueror if built against the kde4 base :-(

And... they know that...

And... Now *you* do tooooo. You *knew* kde3 was going awaaaay.

That doesn't excuse deliberately breaking working apps.

And *you* know it [..edited..]

Heh, heh, heh, heh ;-)....... God it's good, and productive, to have a good debate return to the list. I can't think of a better example of this than the "accidentally on purpose" compiling apps in the *KDE3* /backports repository like kdiff3 and others against the kde4 base -- and then refusing to correct the "accident." Some of the developers obviously think the members of this list are pretty darn stupid. You know, "You can fool some of the people most of the time, but you can't fool all of the people all of the time...." And the way it's done, just kind of leaves a bad taste in your mouth... But that's just my option of course. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
