A good idea would be to make a KDE 3.5.10 after KDE 3.5.9 to continue with KDE 3.5.X series, but it won't happen :( http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/10/Schedule If you want KDE 3.5.X, and still use Fedora you can use Fedora 9-X where X is a number less than 8, or a LiveCD which does not care for any updates, and you can still run and start without problems/updates/etc. Regards, Antonio -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
