correction K3B is one of the 'crown-jewels' of the Linux desktop. 

   I know   fedora  ( red-hat) have never been  fans of KDE  and   some 
fedoras I knew did not even ship K3B so perhaps your problems lie there.

 But in an informed way,  are you saying  K3B it is being abandoned  because 
of change to QT4/KDE4?  Could a  KDE/K3B developer  comment please?
