  Most of the people will use prebuit packages. The question is: how should  
the packaging people compile the package? Should there be 2 packages: a  
kde version, having as dependency "half of kde" and the non-kde version,  
which has all the libs in the package? And will these versions conflict?  
What if someone installs ktechlab, and kdevelop after?
