Using Kubuntu 10.04 and I'm a long-time Gnome user.
When using KPackage, I figured out how to get it to list programs based on search (easy enough) but I could not see how to select random programs from that list. I'm used to Synaptic and its check boxes.
How does KPackage work in terms of "mark for install", "mark for removal", etc? I couldn't seem to get the hang of that. I did successfully install kubuntu-restricted-extras and a couple of other programs, but I did them one at a time because I couldn't figure out the multi-select.
Also KPackage does not seem to provide as much feedback as Synaptic in terms of what's happening or about to happen. Do I need to adjust a setting somewhere?
I have many questions regarding the KDE way of doing things, but will use individual posts for them as has been suggested.
thanks for the help.
