This creates file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/kubuntu-ppa-backports-wheezy.list with content like this: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu wheezy main deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu wheezy main Since there is no wheezy directory on kubuntu-ppa launchpad site, apt-get update will fail. If you care, you must use correct sources.lists entries: (for Ubuntu 12.04:) deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu precise main deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu precise main OR (for Ubuntu 11.10:) deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu oneiric main deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu oneiric main Please note that these packages were made with Ubuntu in mind and perhaps no one has ever tested them on Debian. It is unlikely they will break your system, but most certainly they may break your KDE installation. Pay special attention to any warning messages you may encounter while installing these packages. Oh, and get rid of your current KDE installation before you proceed. Almost certainly these packages are in conflict with each other, even if no one has marked them so. -- Best regards Mirosław Zalewski ___________________________________________________ This message is from the kde mailing list.
