*But*, John, it is a KDE 'thing' and not a fedora 'thing'. I have seen
the same thing happen in KDE specific distributions *without* the hated
GNOME anywhere near. Mandrake comes to mind.

If whoever deals with KDE for Fedora 'fixes' this catastrophic error in
Fedora the other poor unfortunate users of KDE in other distributions
will still suffer from this tragically, terrible 'wrong day' problem.

That's why I suggested that he write to KDE's bugzilla. Or even to the
Fedora bugzilla. Speaking here, on a 'help me please list' sure as heck
won't fix anything unless a developer/packager happens to read this and
take notice.  ;-)
