Usually, if a bug has not been fixed, we prefer to have followups, instead of opening new bugs. > The behavior manifests when using XDMCP, but is not strictly related to KDE > alone, becasue it is not present in a fresh install of the operating system > from a netinst CD. In order for us to work on a bug, we need to have clear reproduction instructions. If there is a leak, it could be that there is a memory area that is not being correctly freed (valgrind can help detecting this) or that certain type of "alive" object increases but never decreases (a memory profiler might help with this). > Only after installing several other packages has the behavior mmanifested > itself.

When you upgrade a program that is currently running, the linux kernel needs to load the old version in memory and it will stay there until the program ends. It could be, that if you upgraded the whole of kde and didn't restart your session this is the reason. It could be that there is a leak, but in order to work on that we need more information.
