Hi,everyone.
I'm running Mint on KDE 4.3.5 and I would like to know if I can upgrade to the current release of KDE (4.4.x ?).Does anybody know how I can safely do this? Many thanks.

This should be possible, and given that Mint is Debian/Ubuntu based, you should be able to use their packages without issue if Mint does not have any themselves.

Many thanks for the answer.
This means that I have to go to Debian amd download the packages...? I was more interested in how I can do this. |

quick google search seems they use the backports repo from kubuntu
ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports |

@sdim: You will need to make the needed changes to the configuration files used by APT, located at /etc/apt/

I added the Kubuntu backports,used KPackageKit,and it's OK.
Many thanks,guys. |
