I'm running Sarge and I'm trying to install KDE 3.1.2 but I'm running into
problems.
This is what I'm doing:

I'm adding this line to my sources.list:
deb http://download.kde.org/stable/3.1.2/Debian stable main

after that I do an apt-get update and an apt-get dist-upgrade (I've also tried
doing an apt-get upgrade).

When I do the dist-upgrade it wants to uninstall a bunch of packages, not
upgrade them. Like this:

[code:1]
Building Dependency Tree... Done
The following packages will be REMOVED:
ark guarddog kab karm kate kcalc kcharselect kchart kcoloredit kcron kdebase
kdebase-doc kdebase-libs kdelibs3 kdelibs3-bin kdepasswd \kdepim-libs

0 packages upgraded, 2 newly installed, 66 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 4837kB of archives. After unpacking 120MB will be freed.
[/code:1]

What am I doing wrong?!
I've tried to uninstall all the packages above and then installed single apps
like Kmail, but when I do that it just wants to uninstall
kdebase-data............ and install a bunch of old KDE packages.

Please help !!!

Ok, so basically I should wait until kde3.1.2 shows up in testing? Bummer. Does anyone know when that will happen? I'm really wanting to run KDE 3.1.2, and I don't want to run unstable. I'm not quite that dareing.........

Thankx melenas! I will try it as soon as I get a chance

melenas: I have now tried what you described in your post on the spanish part of the forum but I still get the same result as I got in my first post..... I think I must be doing something wrong........
I created a preferences file with the content you wrote + added the all the lines to sources.list that you did. Then I did a apt-get update and apt-get (dist-)upgrade.
Hmmm............ anything else I could be missing?

melenas: I am very interested in your translated article. I tried to mail you but have gotten no response. I guess I'll wait till the article is published on dot.kde.org.
