Quick upgrade question

[ejgutierrez]

I have installed Fedora 8 with all updates.

I have installed preupgrade 0.9.3.3

I want to upgrade to Fedora 9.

But i dont want to use kde4 till kde4.1 or 4.2. Ive read that kde4 is the default kde version in Fedora 9.

Is there anyway to upgrade to Fedora 9 and still using kde3.5.9 ?

Thanks in advance

It is still available at least through the web

Just search for kdebase3

[ejgutierrez]

If i install kdebase3 then could i choose between kde3 and kde4 and gnome and other desktops ( i upgrade from f8 so i wouldnt need this no ? Or will i use kde4 with compatibility libs for using kde3 not still ported to kde4 apps?


Ideally i dont want to install kde4. Only kde3 as im upgrading from f8.

Thanks
