Why?

If every KDE application needs both kdelibs and kdebase to run properly,  why 
are theses two packages splitted?

kdelibs alone should be enough to run mosts of kde application by an user 
which does not use the kde desktop.


Now, you can say that an application can "run" without khelpcenter. that's 
another question to know if users runnig kde application outside kde needs 
help :-)
