Essentially Konqueror doesn't need the rest of tdebase, and most of what it depends on is from tdelibs. What it does depend on can be packaged in with it.
Konqueror on my machine pulls in 72 different libraries, as a comparison, firefox pulls in at 57 and mplayer at 142
I think it might be worth considering,
You are aware that you can run Konqueror on a non-Trinity window manager, right? What does all this work to repackage do? Save a little disk space and download bandwidth. How much? Is it worth it? Compared to most YouTube views, the disk space and BW for installing all the base commands are negligible.
To me, the cost/benefit is too low, but someone might want to do it.
Exactly. Cost/benefit WAY too low for consideration by the general TDE project. If a distribution wants to do this "on the side" they are free to do so. ;-)

Okay,
Me and Pawel "L0ner" have been discussing the modularization of trinity applications that belong in kdebase/kdegrahpics/kdenetwork etc. They are almost all independent applications, and could be seperated as such.
Just trying to throw something fresh on the table, Calvin Morrison
