-Third party software not building :
------------------------------------
+Upgrading from Debian Lenny to Debian Squeeze
+---------------------------------------------
 
-The Debian KDE packages are built with the KDE4_ENABLE_EXPERIMENTAL_LIB_EXPORT
-option, which alters how CMake (the build system used by KDE) links to the KDE
-libraries. This may cause KDE4 software to fail to build from source.
+KDE 4 applications on Debian Lenny use ~/.kde4 directory to store user settings
+and data. However, this has changed in Debian Squeeze. Once kdelibs5 package is
+upgraded, all newly started KDE 4 applications will switch to using ~/.kde
+directory for this purpose.
 
-Please read http://pkg-kde.alioth.debian.org/experimental_linking.html before
-reporting bugs on build errors.
+In order to avoid data loss, you should make sure there are no KDE 4 applications
+running when upgrading kdelibs5 package. It is also recommended to terminate all
+running KDE sessions first.
+
+You may use Kaboom, the Debian KDE Settings Migration Wizard, to migrate your
+old KDE 4 settings to a new location. The wizard also features backing up of
+exising KDE settings to protect your data if something goes wrong with upgrade.
+Please refer to http://pkg-kde.alioth.debian.org/kaboom.html for more
+information.
+
+Kaboom will start automatically when you start a KDE 4 session for the first
+time after upgrade from KDE 3.5 desktop shipped with Debian Lenny. However, if
+you only use individual KDE 4 applications, you will need to run Kaboom
+manually. Executable is named 'kaboom' and it is included in the kaboom
+package.
