Yes, runtime dependency. It shows file open/save dialog, but shows error 
message that kinit is not running so you will not see any files in that 
dialog.

Dependency is not really needed, having the script would be more than enough.

Yea I understand that your packages are solving it, I just want to make sure I 
understand the situation with the upstream, because it sounds highly 
illogical. They promise good cooperation between KF5 and any other desktop 
including KDE4, even release proper widget styling, and at the same time 
package dependencies make it close to impossible to configure those fonts, 
styles, color themes. Oh well :) that's good we have you, for next 2 years or 
so we'll be able to use some pieces of KF5 still having stable KDE4-based 
workstations :)
