Ya think? Actually it's bogus. Happens to me allatime. Then I go look in a web browser, and it's always right there.

This is *not* a kde4 repo. It is a kde3 repo, for 11.1, x86-64. and i believe that 11.1 is still supported. so the first question is: where was the repo moved? the second q: why? are the kde4ers so insecure that they started hiding around the kde3 repos? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Sigh. You know.. this whole KDE3 vs KDE4 thing is getting SO OLD. What is wrong with you people? Look at what I typed... "KDE:/Community and KDE4:/Community".... the original email in this thread pointed at the KDE:/Community repo missing.... Nothing in what I said stated it was only for KDE4. Nothing in what I said had ANYTHING to do with the KDE3 vs KDE4 stupidity. I included the KDE4:/Community to be complete for all users reading this thread. Instead of reading what was written *you* decided to try and turn it into yet another flame fest. This is last reply I'll be giving on this thread because I have ZERO patience for this KDE3 vs KDE4 stupidity that you and others are so intent on furthering.

'd': assuming you have KDE:KDE3 repos already, just remove KDE:Community since it is no longer needed. As explained here its packages were to be moved into KDE:KDE3 to make way for a hyperspace bypass: http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-kde/2010-08/msg00014.html Many of the KDE:Community packages have now been merged with KDE:KDE3, which is now community-maintained (Roll up! Roll up! Who dares to prove their strength and prowess maintaining KDE 3 packages?). The projects and related repos were removed on Tuesday: http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-kde/2010-08/msg00207.html Which leaves 197 packages lingering in the attic: https://build.opensuse.org/project/show?project=home:llunak:attic Many of these have been merged into other packages or projects since they were added to KDE*:Community projects, so it's not a big loss, but if you miss one of these and can't find it elsewhere, why not maintain it for us in KDE:Extra or KDE:KDE3?
