KDE4 pre-releases
=================

This is the second Release Candidate for KDE 4.4 (aka kde-4.4.rc2
or kde-4.3.95) for Slackware.

You will need to run a *development* snapshot of Slackware (meaning,
slackware-current of around 20-jan-2010 or newer). These packages do
*not* work on Slackware 13.0.
KDE 4.4 has different requirements from KDE 4.3 or 4.2. You will have to upgrade
several non-KDE Slackware packages as well as add some new packages.

Slackware 32-bit:
* All of the dependencies that you need are in the "x86/deps" directory.
* All KDE packages can be found in "x86/kde".

Slackware 64-bit:
* All of the dependencies that you need are in the "x86_64/deps" directory.
* All KDE packages can be found in "x86_64/kde".
* KDE localizations (language packs) are available in "x86_64/kdei".

These are the three steps you take to upgrade to KDE 4.4.rc2. It will bring
you KDE4 even if you did not have it installed before.

I assume your current directory is where you found this README.
From within this directory, you run the following commands as root.

  On Slackware:
  # removepkg kdelibs-experimental
  # upgradepkg --reinstall --install-new x86/deps/*.t?z
  # upgradepkg --reinstall --install-new x86/kde/*.t?z

  On Slackware64:
  # removepkg kdelibs-experimental
  # upgradepkg --reinstall --install-new x86_64/deps/*.t?z
  # upgradepkg --reinstall --install-new x86_64/kde/*.t?z
