The kdegraphics package says it contains all of these, so I went through the list. While I do have the package installed, I do not have kamera, kpaint or kuickshow installed. I found that strange. So, I ran yum search kdegraphics and found kdegraphics-extras Description: Extra graphics applications for the K Desktop Environment, including: * kuickshow (quick picture viewer) * OpenEXR kfile plugin I now have kuickshow back :-D Thanks for your help everyone!
