Re: Please review new KDE on MX section

I guess I do not fully understand I meant that after installing KDE, people should check that they have all the packages needed. You get a very basic kde with limited capabilities unless you get recommended and suggested for your most used apps. This was meant for newbies. Henry Understand. Perhaps...

Re: Please review new KDE on MX section

True, as for editing how many versions of KDE4 are in Wheezy (stable), in both cases, the available installation candidate is KDE SC 4...
