KDE 3.2 Alpha 1 Finally on FTP

Posted by michael on Thursday September 11, 2003 @12:30AM from the wonder-if-annoying-scrollbar-bug-is-fixed-yet dept.

An anonymous reader cut-and-pastes from the announcement: "Stephan Kulow finally managed to get the last bits of the KDE 3.2 Alpha 1 codenamed 'Brokenboring' including KDevelop 3.0 Alpha 6 on the ftp server (the mirrors should soon pick it up). There won't be any binary packages for this release because the KDE 'P(a)i' release is coming out soon. Everyone using it is asked to compile it with --enable-debug, so we can get valuable feedback. There is a new unstable version of Konstruct to install it."

Good for technically uninclined. by Neil+Watson · 2003-09-11 00:58 · Score: 0, Troll

I used to be a big KDE fan. I still think it is a fine piece of software. However, after moving to mutt for email, mozilla for web browsing (Konqueror still had a few bugs as of 3.1.1), and blackbox for windows management I find myself not so excited.
That said, for my wife and other non technical users, KDE is wonderful. I hope the stable release comes soon.
