I guess installing k3b from unstable is not going to work. It needs a whole lot of other packages from unstable to do this. I used "apt-get -t unstable -s install k3b" to try this out. So, I guess the safest bet would be to get the k3b.deb package that was in testing from someplace. ->HS -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
