For the record... Starting off with some minimum default installation, and
then adding stuff later, doesn't necessarily work all that well either.
I did an F7 Test 4 installation taking JUST the default packages that the
installer presented to me, including Gnome but no KDE.
Now, whenever I do a new installation I always install both Gnome and KDE,
but this time I resisted the temptation.
Then, after I got it all up and running, I logged on as root and tried "yum
groupinstall "KDE (K Desktop Environment)"". Result was:
Transaction Check Error:
file /usr/share/config/kdm conflicts between attempted installs of
kde-settings-kdm-3.5-23.fc7 and kdebase-3.5.6-10.fc7
Tried using "Add / Remove Programs" to install KDE and got pretty much the
same thing.
Amazingly enough I couldn't find anything about that in the bugzilla
database, so I reported it as bug 240717.
Have any of you run across that, and what did you do about it?

WHY these installations always default to Gnome
and not KDE...>
