December 8th, 2009 : KDE 4.3.4 for Windows available |
|
The KDE on Windows team today announced the immediate availability of "Cold", (a.k.a KDE 4.3.4) a new stable Release of
KDE. This release contains many bug fixes and some new applications. The binary packages could be installed with the installer by using the version "stable 4.3.4" (or "stable latest"). In case you are upgrading your KDE installation, deselect the skip basic settings checkbox on the first installer page and press next until you are guided to the release settings page, where you can choose the required version. In this release major changes have been made to the infrastructure used by KDE on Windows: The msvc-packages have moved to the Visual Studio 9.0-compiler and packages for MinGW 4.4.0 have also been added. This will also mean that if the MinGW 4.4.0 packages show that they are stable enough, MinGW 3.4.5 packages might be discontinued in one of the coming releases. (KDE on Windows Team) |
