Well, I did the kdebase with --nodeps, though I think it would be a
better move to remove the jdk as a dependancy (as the package obviously
works without it).
I did download the jdk from Sun. I'm sure I must have agreed to some
stupid license that I'll get sued for someday when I'm some kind of
Uber-developer.
