Yes, that is what I originally used but I did --force and --nodeps on all
of it.  More and more as I used it I was getting funny things like 5 copies
of Konqueror trying to start on startup but not coming up, autorun suddenly
not working and other stuff.  I figure something was out of sync because of
dependency issues.

My plan now, unless something better pops up, is:
1. get the "-unofficial" RPMs for RH 7.1, nice and clean.
2. get the list of dependencies from the kde.org site.
3. rpm each package individually, starting from the packages depended-on
and working up to the "upper" packages.
4. DO NOT use --force or --nodeps, always go get the deps.

Besides, this will certainly be a good learning experience about RPMs,
dependencies, etc.  (always look on the bright side, right?)

BTW, I had also installed all of Ximian Gnome so I could try GnuCash.  That
may have had something to do with it since I probably did some ugly --force
stuff installing all of that.  I got rid of all of that now and will be
sticking with KDE stuff for now, once I get it updated to 2.2.1.
