Out of interest does Kget work yet? it has been broken since I installed kde4, 
the packages from kde-redhat, currently @  4.0.2
I did check the rawhide live CD and still no go. No go in that it just sits 
there and downloads do not start. 
I had been looking for a bug report on this and I believe there was a patch 
for either kdebase or kdelibs, of course I would have no idea if it was back 
ported to kde-4.0.x

To me Kget is a vital part of KDE.

That said I would not go back to kde-3.5.x you guys are doing an excellent job 
with the kde support in Fedora, kde-4 does however take a little getting used 
too :-)

Maybe I should check out the latest F9 beta release,

Cheers
