Re: Followup: Reverting from KDE4 to KDE3

AFAIK KDE 3.5 is not supported for F9, except for the limited parts you
already mentioned. Of course you can always compile it yourself (maybe
someone has done it already but I don't know of any such effort).

I'm currently running KDE 3 on F9.
Have a look at the thread "Successfully upgraded to F9 while keeping KDE 3"
on the fedora-devel list (2/6/2008).

I managed to upgrade from F8 to F9 while excluding all the KDE stuff.
It is not easy, as I had to manually create a couple of rpms for compatibility.

In any case, it has been working perfectly until now, and I'm planning to
upgrade to KDE 3.5.10, simply using the F8 rpms.

Best regards.
