Basically, you need:

kdelibs 
kdebase            
kdeadmin
kdenetwork
kdemultimedia
kdeutils
kdegraphics
kdegames 
kdetoys

(the last two are optional)

The Red Hat RPMs split some of these into two or more packages.

E.G. "kdelibs" & "kdelibs-sound"  Install both.
         
If you are upgrading from KDE 2.x, you can Upgrade these all together.

Otherwise, the first two need to be installed first and second.

You should also have Qt-2.3.1 and the current KDE version of aRts.
