Re: jaunty » karmic

[Evandro Myller]

thank you people. i just heard that just changing sources.list is not as
reliable as using update-manager -d for some reasons that I'm still not
aware of them all.

and yes, i know it's not supported/released yet. i'm starting to play around
with pyqt-pykde, and i just want to test my stuff and, perhaps, contribute
with something. =]

I ended up doing this. I haven't done before coz I was wondering if the
upgrade could be successfully done without any GUI, but people on IRC told
me to use update-manager.
