Description: The K Desktop Environment
A metapackage containing dependencies for the core suite of KDE including
kdelibs, kdebase, kdeadmin, kdegraphics, kdemultimedia, kdenetwork, kdepim,
koffice, and kdeutils. Provides Suggests and Recommends for all other
KDE based packages.
.
Does not contain depends for Toys, Games, or Development packages.
Task: desktop
~ %%
KDE is a dependency package.
apt-get install kde
apt-get remove kde
Will install all of the KDE core.
If you remove any piece of KDE, the (useless except for deps) kde goes
along, and kdepim/kdenetwork2-dev was probably conflicted on by
korganizer.
