(Of which K3b forms a part.) i installed the Trinity metapackages : >desktop-base-trinity, kdebase-trinity, and kdepim-trinity. These do no include k3b. i installed k3b explicitly. a handy Debian tool to see what depends/reccommends on what, what will get installed if you install this package $ Apt-cache rdepends k3b-trinity Reverse Depends: kipi-plugins-trinity dolphin-trinity k3b-data-trinity k3b-data-trinity 'apt-cache show' will output lots of info also, recommends, suggests and depends. -- Peace, Greg
