Hi everybody, hi Steven,
Personally, I find the idea of Steven quite nice, however, the
situation in OpenSuse / KDE being what it is today, the software packages
for openSUSE KDE3 are to be selected and installed "by hand" by the user
via yast: it is extremely painful <troll>, especialy if you dont want a
KDE4 library/part to corrupt (-; your installation! </troll>
How about the idea of a "basic" Trinity bundle and
another "complete" one, in addition to individual access to each software
package?
Cheers

Perhaps a package set of one app, the best app,
for most uses. Say:
[...]
Speaking as a user, I really dislike the KDE practice of packaging
applications in bundles. The package manager (yum or apt-get or similar)
should handle dependencies, for everything else, individual applications
(or application suites, like KOffice) should get individual packages. If I
want to install Konsole, I should be able to "apt-get install Konsole"
rather than "apt-get install bundle-of-17-apps-I-don't-want-and-1-I-do".
