I think kdm should depend on:
kdebase | x-session-manager | x-window-manager
lintian should have told the maintainer (as it told me once) that
you should specify a "better" package with | when specifying a
virtual package, maybe it got confused because it already had a |?
that way, kdm will select kdebase as the default (a natural choice...)
but will accept gnome-session, for example, if it is installed
