Re: KDE2 release schedule update
by Brian Hartman on Tuesday 26/Sep/2000, @17:32

I like what I've seen of KDE 2.0 so far, but I have a few issues: 1) It seems to be very difficult to upgrade, particularly from Beta3 to the later betas. I've been trying to get Beta5 up and running on Red Hat 6.9 (Pinstripe) with no success, and right now, my Beta3 installation even seems to be broken. Not good. I hope that any future release will have a simplified upgrade procedure that will deal with issues like setting KDEDIR and QTDIR, both of which have been giving me fits. 2) I have to agree with an earlier comment about Konqueror. I hope it gets more stable. To be fair, it's got some nice features I haven't seen elsewhere, but it definitely has a tendency to crash on my machine. KDE is supposed to make things simple, right? So the installation should be simple, too. (If it really is simple, and I've just been doing something blatantly wrong, feel free to email me and help me out. Help's always appreciated. :))

Why don't you remove beta3 before installing a later beta? You won't loose anything, AFAIK.
