[csw-users] [Fwd: [kde-solaris] Pkg-get upgrade broke my KDE...]

[EBradley at williams-int.com]

Actually, I sent the original message to the solaris-KDE list, and Darin

forwarded it here on my behalf.



Tom, how did you downgrade kdebase_gcc?  Was it a function of pkg-get

itself, or did you just manually install the older version of

kdebase_gcc?  I'm sorry to hear that it didn't fix the problem, but I'd

like to know how to downgrade packages using pkg-get in the future

should something like this happen again.





Thanks,



Evan
