Anyone know how to upgrade to this via apt-get so that I don't have to use a CD?

I use Kubuntu and had a few glitches that I had to work around with dpkg. Also, the new Kaffeine only installed the gstreamer video engine but without avi codecs. I went and installed kaffeine-xine and switched the engine and it works fine. If you use the Gnome desktop I'll bet gstreamer will be installed properly. There were a couple file conflicts between packages (xlibmesa-dri was one). I used dpkg --purge to clear out the existing packages and then apt-get -f install and apt-get dist-upgrade repeatedly until everything was installed. All in all I think I spent about an hour fussing with it. I already had the new KDE mirrors for 3.4.2 and an updated kaffeine player so the upgrade isn't all that noticiable on a superficial level. I'm looking forward to the release though :)
anyway, ymmv.
Kind Regards

It's the Amarok devs that recommends GStreamer...
*Doh*
I just changed all "hoary" references in /etc/apt/source.list to "breezy" and then did a sudo apt-get dist-upgrade. I also removed any non Ubuntu blessed mirrors to be safe. So I just had "main" "universe" and "multiverse".Ubuntu Breezy Badger "Colony 3" now available

Sorry, my bad. Got my head screwed up by the Amarok article, and somehow mixed Amarok and Kaffeine...Ubuntu Breezy Badger "Colony 3" now available
