KDE 4 Gutsy release- long way to run yet---

[ElZorro]

I had a look at the KDE4 gutsy release, sure can see why KDE4 is not ready for prime time either, especially with Kubuntu-Desktop.
A less than intuitive mildly Vistoid performance and lots of irritating deficits and broken packages, that make you appreciate 3.5.8 or 3.5.7, much better!.
No wonder Kubuntu wants to stay with KDE 3.5.8, when it aint too broken, why fix it too much.
Lots of KDE withheld due to broken packages.
Problems with package managers, and even apt needed a bit of prodding.
Very experimental for now.

I agree, I installed it, and half of my installed programs became broken.

It looks to much like Vista now, the menus. that sucks.

Logged out and back into 3.5.8 and still lots broken. had to re-install. took almost 5 hours, with everything I install. but have it down to an art now.
