Moore II" To: navindra@cs.mcgill.ca Subject: KDE Linux Packaging Project Hi, I know you have the hookup to get things placed into the KDE News, here's one for ya about the KLPP. 2 Major updates have occured in the KLPP (KDE Linux Packaging Project). The first being that of bad news. The Mailing list took a dump and I had to rebuild the puppy. Anyone who wants to be on the list (any of them) need to resubscribe ( http://kde.tdyc.com/mailing/ ). The second is that of good news. Everyone who has dealt with the KLPP in recent times knows the troubles we have had with servers. Either we are hogging too much bandwidth and our ISP shuts us off, or we kill the box it's running on. Well, a few people so far have stepped forward to help out with these. We currently have a site supplying disk space and bandwidth for the whole KLPP and another one that for now is just taking on the Debian portion and will later expand into the full KLPP. We also have a few more mirrors in general for Debian pacakges. Here is a complete list of apt-get'able sites.
