KDE SC 4.5.5, KDEPIM 4.4.9 for mandriva 2010.[1,2]

Since the 5th January KDE SC 4.5.5 is released, so as usual you'll find here the lastest stable KDE version.

Please note that it's going to be the last backport for 2010.1 i'm going to do because of two reasons:

--> KDE SC 4.6 is going to be integrated with mandriva 2011.0.

--> KDE SC 4.6 is also going to be provided with the future mageia & and alpha release is expected by the end of January.

One good news here is that KDE 4.5.5 is going to be uploaded on kde's ftp (& his mirrors ) so you'll be able to get even more mirrors next to you, since neoclust (KDE's packager for mandriva)  is going to upload all the package as soon as possible,as usual it's also mirrored on MIB.

Please note that i created a new media named others in order to avoid uploading non KDE packages on kde's repository (or at least the needed one)

So we now have

kde4.5.5/release
you'll be able to find here KDE SC 4.5.5, KDEPIM 4.4.9,Qt 4.7.1,Dbus 1.4.0,digikam & kipi-plugins 1.7 & some library updated to their lastest stable version

kde4.5.5/testing
for testing packages (i'll put here for example the oxgyen-gtk package), probably digikam 2.0 beta

kde4.5.5/updates
you'll find here updates for my packages like bugfixes from KDE 4.5 trunk, & they should also land on kde's mirrors

kde4.5.5/others
you'll find here others packages like  networkmanager 0.8.2, knetworkmanager, some plasmoids applet, bluedevil,yakuake,vlc, phonon-vlc,clementine , koffice 2.3  etc etc
updates for thoses packages will also land in the same directory

To add the repository you'll need to do

1. remove all kde4.5.4 repositoriesurpmi.removemedia -a kde4.5.4
2. add the kde4.5.5 repositoriesfor example using my ftp it's going to be for x86_64  :urpmi.addmedia kde4.5.5_releases ftp://ftp.littleboboy.net/pub/linux/mdv/2010.1/x86_64/media/kde4.5.5/release
   urpmi.addmedia kde4.5.5_updates --update ftp://ftp.littleboboy.net/pub/linux/mdv/2010.1/x86_64/media/kde4.5.5/updates
   urpmi.addmedia kde4.5.5_others --update ftp://ftp.littleboboy.net/pub/linux/mdv/2010.1/x86_64/media/kde4.5.5/others

   and for  i586
   urpmi.addmedia kde4.5.5_releases ftp://ftp.littleboboy.net/pub/linux/mdv/2010.1/i586/media/kde4.5.5/release

   urpmi.addmedia kde4.5.5_others --update ftp://ftp.littleboboy.net/pub/linux/mdv/2010.1/i586/media/kde4.5.5/others

3. upgrade

   urpmi --auto-select

Feel free to request some packages updates for plasmoid in comments or report packaging bugs here :)
