I don't have kde installed on my computer, and I use Etch, and I was
able to install k9copy (1.0.4.2-0.1), and run it (in either ion3,
fluxbox, or gnome). So, k9copy does not require all of kde to run.
Whatever libraries, etc, that it does require will be installed via apt
(or synaptic, or aptitude). Further, it is in the Etch multimedia (aka
marillat) repositories. I feel you should reconsider and install it if
you'd like to copy dvds. Just my two cents.
Personally, I think the most efficient method is vobcopy.
vobcopy -m will mirror the entire DVD, and in the proper structure, to
your hard drive. Then you can simply use K3B to burn it to a DVD-R or
an iso file.
