My opinion is that if the user uses sudo, so either it was installed and

But if sudo is installed "involuntarily", due to tdelibs dependency, sudo is
not configured and is therefore useless. In such case, tdelibs dependency on
sudo is unnecessary.
Somehow I miss a case where this dependency is useful :)

Yes, just a few days ago, I also researched why
kdelibs / tdelibs have
sudo stated as 'depends' == is always installed and can not be
uninstalled. And I see no compelling reason for this. Therefore, I
propose to remove this dependency. Does anyone have a convincing argument
against this?
Perhaps it is something related to desktop setup. I recently cleaned up a
machine from all desktop stuff (it had gnome and kde4).
Now it suggests to remove the dhcp server and sudo ... this is not what I
want ... is there something else one can install to keep sudo and dhcp.
Something like server profile you select in the beginning of the OS
installation?
When I have a desktop (tde,gnome,kde) sudo stays there.
