Just out of curiosity, will there ever be a KDE 4.3 64 bit?
I tried out a couple of live cd's and really like KDE 4.3, but would like to stay with Mint.
Right now my OS is Mint Gloria 64 and I am really loving it.
Anyway just curious, and keep up the good work guys whether for Mint or KDE.
-RIck :D

Unless the development team grows, I doubt there will be a x64 version of Mint KDE, the best thing is to hack it with helena and install kde 4.3 yourself.

I am planning on a 64bit version of Helena KDE.
once the 32bit version is final then I will build the 64bit.
there are not many changes between them so it is mainly meta packages split up correctly I have to get right.
Clem does it this way too.
