kpkgmanager 0.3.3 and kio-apt 0.12 Fixes for APT 0.6. Only small changes, it should still compile and work under apt < 0.6. (kpkgmanager is NOT binary compatible, so you should rebuild it if you are using Apt 0.5)

kpkgmanager 0.3.1 Fixes the most annoying bugs of 0.3 (and there were annoying bugs). I don't have much time to work on it these days :(
04/06
kpkgmanager 0.3 and kio-apt 0.11 Bugfixes (as usual). KPkgManager now has KIO/Apt support in the stats dialog (the dialog which appears when an action has been selected). Kio/Apt is more friendly when the window is smaller.

kio-apt 0.10 and kpkgmanager 0.2 Bugfixes
03/16
kio-apt 0.9 and kpkgmanager 0.1 kpkgmanager is the KDE equivalent of apt-get. It is quite stable, since it used a lot of apt-get code (and, of course, the APT libraries). The README files contains some important security informations.
I use it for my upgrades since a few weeks, so I can say it is quite stable atm.
Please read the TODO list at the bottom of the README file before sending me any wishlist item.

Next step is kcm_apt ...

New kio-apt release (0.7) Adds support for RPM-specific functionalities, fixed a few bugs and a few cosmetic and usability changes. Adds polish translation too. Adding support for web-based search is on my to-do list, so don't ask for it. Many thanks to the guys who worked on it while I was skiing :)

Fixed the Release file apt-get didn't update the packages automatically (my repository was assigned a pin of 1 :(). Should be fixed now.
