[Solved] How to install KDE unstable

I've been meaning to try KDE4.5 to see if it is any more to my liking then the previous versions of KDE 4.

So how would I go about installing KDE 4.5 on my arch install?

Re: [Solved] How to install KDE unstable

I have the kde-unstable repo but I want to know how I actually install kde 4.5 instead of 4.4 on a fresh arch install.

Make sure the [kde-unstable] repo entry in pacman.conf is above the [extra] entry.

Okay thanks that worked. I wasn't aware that the order in pacman.conf actually matter.

It does because the name of the app is the same (kde) it will pick it up from the first available repo that has the app/group named kde.

also, since your question has been answered, please mark the thread as [SOLVED]
