A lot of KDE4.2 updates??

[MoonRise]

Is it just me or have there been a lot of KDE4.2 updates? It also appears not to be coming from the PPA as I originally thought it did.

The Jaunty has move to the FeatureFreeze >
Re: Jaunty Release Schedule, Plans, KDE 4.2

At this point we stop introducing new features, packages, and APIs, and concentrate on fixing bugs in the development release....

=> There has been lot of fixes:
...
Mon Feb 23 02:00:48 [ubuntu/jaunty] kdebase-workspace 4:4.2.0-0ubuntu7 (Accepted)
Mon Feb 23 10:45:41 [ubuntu/jaunty] kdebase-workspace 4:4.2.0-0ubuntu8 (Accepted)
...

and as the KDE 4.2 is backported to the Intrepid...


The plan

> Kubuntu Meeting Minutes 2008-11-18

* Also see last meeting for package locations
(in short: 4.1.x => intrepid-updates && pre-4.2.0 => kubuntu-experimental
4.2.x => intrepid-backports or kubuntu-members-kde4)

It seems that someone has decided that the KDE 4.2.0 is mature enough to be moved to the official backports.

One reason could be the KDE 4.2.1 release. > KDE 4.2 Release Schedule "March 4th, 2009: Release KDE 4.2.1".

yes, 4.2 is now in Backports, which though "official" are still unsupported just as the ppa repo is - you have to explicitly enable the "unsupported updates" in Adept to get them

Thanks! that explains it! Nothings broken. Runs great as from the PPA, just was wondering why. Now I know

I for one appreciate all the updates (and there are many). Each round seems to get me closer to a stable, and feature complete KDE. NEXT ROUND!
