Package nomenclature will be different for your distro, but to get a
functional desktop, you'll need tqt, tqt-interface, tdelibs, and then the 
individual tdebase packages:

drkonqi
kappfinder
kate
kcheckpass
kcminit
kcontrol
kdcop
kdesktop
kdialog
kfind
khelpcenter
khotkeys
kicker
klipper
kmenuedit
knetattach
konqueror
konsole
kpager
kpersonalizer
kreadconfig
krootbacking
ksmserver
ksplashml
kstart
ksysguard
ksystraycmd
ktip
kxkb
libkonq
nsplugins
tdebase-data
tdebase-starttde
tdebase-tdeioslaves
tdedebugdialog
tdeeject
tdeinit
tdepasswd
tdeprint
tdescreensaver
tdesu
tdm
tqt3integration
twin

Most of the tdebase packages depend on tdelibs, but not on each other.  
konqueror depends on libkonq.  kcontrol, khelpcenter, and I think two 
or three more do depend on other tdebase packages, so dump those to
the end of the list as you find them.

Hope that helps.
