Re: [PLUG] X config, woody, sarge, and knoppix
|
When I went after kde in sid, I updated my sources, did a apt-get update
and then got the kde meta package and everything that kde required.
Moved my sources back to sarge and then did another apt-get update.
That's the most straightforward way that I know of. If you want to be
more selective, you could pull the specific debs down individually and:
dpkg -i sid-package.deb
Its tedious and I doubt it buys you much, but that is one way to do it.
