Hi Everybody,
I've been working on Kev repository and packages since April 30th and now I believe its in a good shape for testing. Just update your /etc/apt/sources.list, change boss to kev, do:
Code:
# apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade
Known Problems:
1) Compiz: Disable compiz before upgrade. After upgrade run compiz settings manager, enable needed plugins and reload compiz using fusion-icon package. For an unknown reason, enabling compiz from Appearance control panel applet wont work.
2) Grisbi: you will receive an overwrite error during dist-upgrade. You have to manually install grisbi-common package using:
Code:
# dpkg -i --force-all /var/cache/apt/archives/grisbi*
Then Do:
Code:
# apt-get -f install && apt-get dist-upgrade
That's it for now! Happy Testing!
Alan |
