--- Comment #2 from Nate Graham <n...@kde.org> ---
Distros provide the packages; you'll need to ask your distro for a different
kind of package.

However, I'm not sure what's in the kdiff-qt package, but if an app requires a
dependent library, it's gonna need to get that library somehow. Options include
installing the library separately via the package manager and dynamically
linking against it, or bundling the library with the app itself--which means no
outside dependencies, but then the app bundle itself is very large. But you
have to pay the piper somehow. :)

What 300mb dependent libraries does your distro's Kate package require? It
almost sounds like maybe you don't already have Qt on your system, and the
package manager is going to install it to get Kate.
