thank you people. i just heard that just changing sources.list is not as reliable as using <span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">update-manager -d</span> for some reasons that I'm still not aware of them all.<br>
<br>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. =]<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Aug 19, 2009 at 6:41 AM, Nils Kassube <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:kassube@gmx.net">kassube@gmx.net</a>></span> wrote:<br>

</div>I used "update-manager -c -d" without modifying sources.list myself. I<br>
don't know if it is really better but the "official" way for going from<br>
one release to the next is with update-manager.</blockquote><div><br>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.<br>
