KDE 4.3.2 Unofficially Released for Kubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty)

[lmilano]

KDE 4.3.2 has just been released, and the Kubuntu devs have kindly packaged it for Jaunty (Thank you!). Please keep in mind that these packages are unsupported, and really only suitable for experienced people who know their way around and how to fix the occasional mishap.

Here are the instructions for how to obtain it:

I already had that repo added and am running 4.3.1
I still do not seem to have 4.3.2 available.

Did you upgrade your sources? I am running 4.3.2 here ...

[lmilano]

Also, I have an older entry for a ppa:


lmilano@grisell:~$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list |grep -v "#" |grep ppa
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu jaunty main

The latter is the one mentioned in the announcement. What do you get when you run that same command?

Yes, I ran
robert@beast:~$ sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude safe-upgrade

I get the same on two computers here at home but at work it upgraded OK in a VM.

Any more ideas?

Maybe the announcement is wrong and the ppa is this one?
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main

Did you see any error messages? Are you sure you are not running 4.3.2? This is really odd!

It sure is odd.
This morning I tried again but still no updates available then I read your post.
That repo you mentioned was used to upgrade to 4.2.4. I tried renabling it last night but no go.
After your post I tried it again this morning and it showed the updates available. I then disabled it and now the updates are available as expected.
Downloading now.
On the other computer it is also working now. Weird.

[lmilano]

Are yu sure you haven't upset a witch, lately? ;)

Oh well, I am glad you are up and running!

[robfish]

I am guessing that our IPCop firewall may have cached something preventing the updates showing.
Anyway I am happy now.
