Re: [kubuntu-kde3.5-users] Problems installing kdelibs-data kdelibs4c2a

Hi Murray,

The outdated 3.5.10 version of kdelibs in the Ubuntu archives (including
kdelibs-data) is not compatible with the new KDE3/Trinity version of
kdelibs (which includes kdelibs-data-kde3).  Please remove kdelibs-data,
and note which programs will be removed with it.  Then try reinstalling
those programs, but with a -kde3 suffix appended.  For example,
kolourpaint becomes kolourpaint-kde3.

Hope this helps!

Tim
