Because using K3B means installing a part of KDE too, and some users
just don't want. It's the old and never solved issue which affects SuSE
since the night of times. We can't have a KDE installation without GNOME
apps or a GNOME installation without KDE apps, with the usual lack of
resources, especially considering that in most cases there are
equivalent applications in both worlds. It's just a question of looking
for them.

I admit the situation somewhat improved in 10.1/10.2, but it's quite
annoying to read this kind of answers to users who are just asking for a
more clean and polished desktop installation.

Btw, openSUSE doesn't provide a default bit-torrent client for GNOME
too, while there are many nice and working out there like deluge (quite
similar to ktorrent) or trasmission. It would be a nice addition for
10.3. At the moment they're only available through additional
unsupported repositories.
