However still in an experimental PPA all packages should be able to be installed. Whether or not the package can install should be checked before pushing it to the PPA<br> </blockquote></div><br><br>The other problem I have is that if the packages were this broken then there should not have been a release announcement on Kubuntu.org. If the packages needed testing there should have been an announcement on #kubuntu-devel and <a href="mailto:kubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com">kubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com</a> for people to test. I owuld have fired up my Jaunty VM, installed the update and then reported the results.
