Hi,

after being absent for a while, I now seem to have some more time again to 
play with KDE on debian again. I got a new IBM laptop on monday and installed 
sarge on it as the hassle with woody is just too time consuming for me to get 
everything running again with a 2.6 kernel etc and as it seems sarge is 
coming to a release stage later this year. I fought with the same problem for 
getting openpgp to work with kmail under sarge, and based on my prior 
experiences, I just compiled gpg 1.9's gpg-agent and copied that 
to /usr/local/bin, then changing my configuration files for pinentry-qt and 
gpg-agent to get everything to work again (though I don't use S/MIME).

However, I'm still not satisfied as I really miss trying KDE 3.3. That makes 
me think it may be worth the effort of packaging 3.3.1 as soon as it comes 
out in the next weeks for sarge, doing the same for recent Aegypten packages 
and upload it somewhere like I did with woody packages before. Maybe that 
will help most people struggling with the same problems under sarge that they 
had with woody and running KDE3.
