KDE 4.1 Released

KDE 4.1 has been released and packages are available for Kubuntu 8.04,
the Hardy Heron. These packages install to /usr/lib/kde4 and can be
installed along side your existing KDE 3 installation.

Instructions

The updated packages for Kubuntu 8.04 are located in the Kubuntu Member’s KDE 4 Personal Package Archive (PPA) repositories. To update to KDE 4.1, please follow these instructions:

  1. Add deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-members-kde4/ubuntu hardy main
    to your /etc/apt/sources.list.
  2. If you already have the kubuntu-kde4-desktop packages installed, simply
    type sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and answer the
    questions in which you are prompted. If you do not have kubuntu-kde4-desktop installed, simply type
    sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install kubuntu-kde4-desktop and
    answer the questions. Both of these options are to be typed at the command
    prompt.
