and for the lazy with broadband: download everything and do a rpm -Fvh *rpm
... this will only upgrade a package if it is already installed ...
as for the core parts of kde, the required packages are aRts, kdelibs and
kdebase. some apps only require kdelibs, but most also use bits and pieces
from kdebase (such as the smtp and pop support for kmail, or the addressbook
GUI (the addressbook library is in kdelibs though))...
everything else is pretty much optional and at your discretion. SuSe did a
good job of breaking up the larger packages into decently organized smaller
packages, so you can choose to just install the mail part of kdenetwork, for
instance. handy, that...
