    disable kaffeine update?

    i upgraded from kubuntu 9.04 to 9.10. i had the older kaffeine installed and it auto updated to the new one. i didnt like it so i uninstalled the new kaffeine and installed the old one again. but everytime i boot up it says ive got 1 update for kaffeine. how do i disable this?

    the reason i dont like the new kaffeine is there isnt any soft cams available.

    thanks

    run synaptic, choose the kaffeine package, then go to "Package"--->"lock version"
    watch out where the huskies go

    There is no synaptic in Kubuntu.You can install it with adept packet manager.Or in terminal:
    sudo apt-get install synaptic

    Code:
    sudo apt-get install wajig
    
    sudo wajig hold kaffeine
    issuing a "Lock version" in synaptic may also be needed in addition.
