Want to get kate and KDE 4.2 on Ubuntu 8.10

[harrybazeegar]

Hi,

I want to use Kate as my code editor, but I also want that:
1. I keep using Gnome as my primary desktop environment
2. I want KDE 4.2, coz I get to use Vi input mode in Kate (This mode is not available in older versions)
3. I don't want to install the complete kubuntu-desktop. I don't want all kde apps to get installed.

So what do I do?

Alternatively, can install the latest Kate(with Vi mode) on the kdelibs I have right now (4.1)??

Cheers,
jrh

Okay, I got it...
I uninstalled kate (old one), added the kde repo (http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-experimental/ubuntu intrepid main), apt-ged update and sudo apt-get install kate..

Wheeee!
