People who want GNOME apps should use the GNOME > spin. :-) Since i was the one who suggested it.. :) I do understand you but, if the KDE alternative is just giving a very basic functionality and is having problems (VPN IIRC) then we should consider using what works well, gives more output, does not suggest (again at the beginning of an update to reboot) stupid things. KPK is in my eyes, ugly, unreliable and too basic. I suggested to you as well to try the latest GNOME-packagekit to see what i mean. I think KPK is on it's way, but not yet ready. If we dont want to lose users to GNOME because of not fully working, suggesting stupid things KDE apps, we might better use the alternative, even if it's written GTK/GTK+. By the way, should everybody use the GNOME SPIN as well because there are no QT alternatives for the installed system-config-* utility's in the KDE SPIN? ;) -- LG Thomas Dubium sapientiae initium
