Should be no problem. You need a new package for every KDE package you currently have installed (including Quanta if you installed that). You will also probably need to upgrade Qt and aRts as well.


If you don't know which KDE packages that you have installed, check with KPackage or run:

rpm -qa |grep kde

Since these packages have interlocking dependencies you will need to upgrade them all at once either by selecting them all in KPackage or writing a suitable command line for RPM. If you are new to Linux, you might want to know that you can list multiple packages on the RPM command line and you can use multiple instances of: '*'.

rpm -Uvh kde*3.2*.rpm arts*1.2*.rpm qt*3.2*.rpm

or something about like that (not sure about which version of qt you will be upgrading to).

You may get some dependencies for other packages. Update them first.
