I didn't say that there shouldn't be seperate packages, of course that
IS GOOD. 
but you i would also like to see a bundled package with all the
necessary files and libs inside.

i mean, the way i see it - kde is all about bringing ease of use to
Linux. and it does that, but just AFTER you install it.

for, let's say, an advanced newbie, upgrading will be possible but
annoying, if not difficult.
people on this list (none of which is a newbie, i presume) had trouble
with it; 
i've been helping a few friends of mine (advanced newbies) who had
trouble with it;
even this article on linuxplanet (which appeared on /. yesterday)
bitches about it.
http://www.linuxplanet.com/linuxplanet/reviews/4138/1/

can you compare this to the ease of installing staroffice (i know, i
know it's not the same thing), Ximian or a new Mozilla release?
and of course, i'm saying this from the point of view of a dedicated KDE
follower. maybe there should be some kind of "KDE Upgrade Tool".
