kio_fish and kio_sftp are not strictly the same.

SFTP and therefore kio_sftp requires that the remote sshd is configured to 
allow SFTP, while kio_fish just requires a "normal" SSH login, i.e. shell.

Since SFTP is specifically designed for file operation over SSH it should 
definitely be preferred, but there might be people needing FISH.
I am also not sure if kio_fish has been dropped for KDE4 or just not ported 
yet by its maintainer.

As for KDE_FORK_SLAVES, it means that applications will fork IO slaves rather 
than requesting them from KLauncher, thus disabling sharing them between 
applications.

It is useful for debugging since the slave becomes a child process of the 
application one is debugging rather then being a process cooperating with it, 
but I don't think it makes sense as a general policy.

Cheers,
Kevin

Package: kalarm
Version: 4:3.5.9-2
Severity: minor

The homepage listed in the package description for kalarm should be 
http://www.astrojar.org.uk/kalarm. The listed home page in the 
package description (http://kontact.kde.org) is for Kontact, which 
doesn't include KAlarm.
