Problem installing KDE
- Vous devez vous identifier ou créer un compte pour écrire des commentaires
I am trying to install KDE on Trisquel 6.
It has the eternal broken package dependency hell scenario.
Our repo has kdepim version 4:4.8.5, but requires > 4:4.8.2 ! Hmmmmmmm. When I tried to force install kdepim from the repo, I got another package error as kdepim's dependencies could not be satisfied and that one had an unmet dependency also, etc, etc, ad nauseum.
"The following packages have unmet dependencies:
kde-full : Depends: kdepim (>= 4:4.8.2) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages."
Any ideas would be appreciated.
I just wanted to install the base packages, but I guess I could try the triskel metapackage.
I thought the package triskel would be similar to Ubuntu's "kubuntu" package which would swap out GDM for KDM and replace a bunch of stuff and basically change the whole distro. I didn't necessarily want to swap out the login manager/default wallpapers, etc.
I'm normally a fluxbox user who just wanted to try out KDE. I'm interested in it's notifications and "activities".
If you say it's safe to do so, I'll try "triskel".
You can download KDE version from here
http://trisquel-users.com/trisquel-downloads/
In the Synaptic package manager, click, in the lower-left corner of the window, on the "Custom filter" button (translated from French, it may be named differently) and choose "Broken" in the list above. You should not have any package listed on the right side of the window. If you do, you should first fix that.
As for "triskel", it is indeed the equivalent of "kubuntu".
Thanks everyone. I went the "triskel" route. Everything works.
I'll have to spend some time in KDE to learn it. Maybe I'll kick the fluxbox habit. :-P
Gracias.
