These programs require underlying libraries to run properly. Those
libraries are stored in separate packages which must also be installed.
The link between those two is "known" by the RPM database. That linkage,
a dependency, must be solved by yum to install the programs you want and
have them actually work.

So the best way to do this is:

$ su -c 'yum install kdebase k3b'

Anything that comes down the pipe, at that point, is required in fact to
let you run konqueror and k3b.

Ok; it got 44 of them. Many thanks! Among other things,
man:whatever is far and away the easiest way to read a man page,
especially if your regular terminal font is too large to format one
properly. Thanks again!
