As a long time kde and fedora fan, I'd like to promote the idea of making
kde a 1st class part of fedora. What does this mean, you ask? Can't the
new user select kde at login?
Yes, they can. But their desktop is setup with icons and menus that are
missing vital kde components.
If a new desktop is setup with kde, it must have konqueror as the browser
and kmail as the mail client. These are designed to work nicely together.
In my experience, most new linux users (as most new users on other OSs)
never bother to customize their menus and tool bars. I see my friends
desktops have kde as window manager, but never heard of kmail, knode, konq
because fedora by default doesn't show them on their menus and desktop.
What you are describing is the symptom of a larger issue that different
set of packages could use more attention that it current receives. This
is something that we fix by merging core,extras and legacy and let
everyone interested work on all of Fedora. See more details at
