Not if I actually /want/ to keep kdebase though.  There's no need for it to have
a hard dependency on everything; it makes the system most inflexible.

It's pulled in via the konqueror recommends, which is perfectly sufficient to
get it installed.  kdebase doesn't need to have any dependency of any form on
konqueror-nsplugins.

Possibly, I'll remove it and see.  Thanks.
