It depends of what you really use: KDE4 (default) or KDE3 (Trinity).

I use gnome, but my wife uses kde-trinity. She uses the kde3 desktop, always has. She also uses kmail, and iceweasel. I don't want anything KDE4 on my system and I want a full KDE3 desktop set of apps.
Well you obviously installed kde4 <something>.
I don't agree. I have just recently installed Squeeze with Trinity. I took extreme care not to install _anything_ of KDE4, since I knew that it was apt to get its claws in, and did not want to have to remove it - with the kind of problems that Paul is experiencing. I did not install Gnome either.
I have a fair amount of KDE4 cruft which I shall have to remove. Something clearly dragged it in, or it piggy-backed on something - for my money the second is more likely.
It's a pitty to say, but on squeze not all kde4 packages carry a *kde4* in their name. e.g.: plasma-* libnepomuk* shared-desktop-ontologies strigi-* by some unknown reason even installation of trinity can cause some kde4 packages to be reinstalled. Anyway, getting rid of that stuff is easy and once you've done it it stays away :-)
