I have both KDE 3 and KDE 4 kde desktop environments installed on my computer. How may I update only the kde 4 desktop to the kde 4.5 factory release without also updating the kde 3.5 desktop to kde 4.5?
I am using Opensuse 11.1 operating system.
thanks for the answers to this question that I received. Unfortunately it didn't work very well, my operating system is hosed from the attempt to upgrade the kde 4.x with zypper and I will have to reinstall the operating system to fix it.
I want to try to install the 4.5 operating system instead of the default 4.1 that comes with suse 11.1 on the next go. Hopefully that will prevent the problems that I experienced this time. Is there a means to do this with openSuse on the 11.1 system?
You can use the procedure to install KDE3 instead of KDE4, and substitute http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Release:/45/openSUSE_11.1/ for the KDE3 repo. http://en.opensuse.org/KDE3 http://omgsuse.com/content/kickin-it-old-school-kde3 Since you're planning to reinstall, I recommend 11.2 instead, since 11.1 doesn't have much support life left, but is much more like 11.1 than 11.3 is, with less beta software in the base OS. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
