I see this form the opposite direction: I would like to drop K3B for good for my personal use, as it is *the only* desktop application I have using *the other* toolkit (and it does not integrate well with the rest
I installed k3b on my gnome desktop after and some kde dependencies got also installed. so what?!? is that a bad thing?!?
