Sven,

To restate Randall's original (and clearly articulated) problem, if KDE3.5 is 
installed but *not* KDE4, some KDE4 applications are *still* installed. There 
does not appear to be any way to change the default behaviour of those KDE4 
applications that are installed as part of a default KDE3.5 install on 
11.0/11.1 without installing KDE4 (or at least more substantial parts of it).

So stating that "if you want to use KDE4 and/or its apps" as you did above is 
unhelpful. Randall didn't *want* to install KDE4 applications - the installer 
did it for him by default...
