first off, KDE does not drag in samba stuff. klisa does not require samba. It
does however use it's features if they are available. Just because something
uses nmblookup doesn't mean that it needs the samba daemons running or even
installed.
Yes the task-kde package should not depend on it but rather be a recommend. I'm
going to fix that.
