So, there's obviously no problem :)

That depends on a few things (e.g. which release, which version-numbers.)

[1] Nice common chap:
If you are using RPM on a regular base with a Linux-release like Redhat,
Caldera,Suse or DLD, and if you think you did install all of your RPMS
correctly, you might try :
[root]:# rpm -Va

[2] Heavy user:
If you're using Slackware or Debian, with RPM-support, then you probably
have to live with ... using --nodeps in such cases.

[3] Power-weirdo:
If you are using all kind of packages, *.tgz, *.rpm, *.deb, then again
you're on your own ;-)

Take a look at /opt/kde/apps/ (or /usr/local/kde/apps/)
Or start dropping icons on Kpanel :)
