kdemod users: may we update our systems?

Hi to all, I'm still using KDE 4.2.4, with kdemod. I'm doubting about if i should update my system or wait until kdemod packages will be updated tu 4.3.0 versions. When i do a -Suy operation pacman says me this:

# pacman -Suy
:: Synchronizing package databases...
 core is up to date
 extra is up to date
 community is up to date
 kdemod-core is up to date
 kdemod-extragear is up to date
 kdemod-playground is up to date
 archlinuxfr is up to date
:: Starting full system upgrade...
:: Replace phonon with extra/qt? [Y/n] n
resolving dependencies...
looking for inter-conflicts...
:: qt conflicts with qtmod. Remove qtmod? [Y/n] n
error: unresolvable package conflicts detected
error: failed to prepare transaction (conflicting dependencies)
:: qt: conflicts with qtmod

Well I answer "no" for showing you the entire output. I don't know if at this moment is secure make the upgrade, then is there any problem from upgrading now?

Thanks for your help
Cheers

Hello!

My situation is the same. I think we should wait, because Amnon82 is rebuilding the x86_64 repo at the moment, because of "provides"-problems. The i686 isn't rebuilt at the moment.
In my opinion we should wait, still the storm is gone wink

Hi Flasher, thanks for replying. I have no hurry and can wait without problems big_smile kde 4.2.4 works really fine for me.

The splitting methods between kde4.3 and kdemod seems different, Is it still useful kdemod for common kde4-users?

Cheers!

Hm....

I don't know if the two different splitting methods make a difference for the users. The kdemod-guys think their splitting method is more advanced, but I can't evaluate these statement.

Apart from that, the kdemod-guys add some features and bugfixes to their release:

The kdemod-team also have a extragear and playground repo, which I'm using sometimes to get "cool" packages like svn versions of popular applications.

Best regards
