Justin where exactly did you get those slack-packs. I personally never
trust anything from linuxquestions or Linuxpackages.com There are
some kde 3.3.3 packages that Patrick made that are sitting on slackware
mirrors. i downloaded everything in the kde 3.3.3 directory that
Patrick had made and then upgradepkg *.tgz had had no problems. if you
use install package when you already have a previouse version of kde
installed it will mess thing up.
