    KDE 3 and Debian

    I'm trying to apt-get KDE3. I've added a site to my sources.list. But I can't actually get it. Everytime I try, I either get an error that it can't find the package, or the latest KDE is already installed. But it's not. I'm only running 2.2.2.

    Oh, I'm on Debian Woody if that matters.

    No KDE3 in Woody without special apt sources - http://www.apt-get.org .

    I added the special apt sources. But I get the error that kde is already at the latest version. Is there something else I'm doing wrong?

    You sure the sources you added have 3.1?
