+<!--beginarticle-->
+<PRE>I have a server VM that does not have KDE installed, but it has KDM, ark, and
+konsole installed. IceWM is the default window manager.
+
+I've tested upgrading it to Mageia 2, and all kinds of extra KDE stuff gets
+pulled in in the upgrade, including task-kde4-minimal, leaving a broken KDE as
+the default window manager.
+
+I'm not 100% sure, but I think at least some of the reason all kinds of extra
+stuff gets pulled in is because Default-kde4-config and
+mageia-kde4-config-common both have added dependencies on plasma applets
+(plasma-applet-icontasks and plasma-applet-battery, respectively), which
+certainly seems wrong. I don't know if this accounts for all of the extra stuff
+getting pulled in. If I knew for sure, I'd file a bug.
+
+Also, as I alluded to, KDE installed with task-kde4-minimal is a bit broken.
+Some issues include no showdesktop widget being installed, and as soon as you
+log in, an error message:
+Warning: Cannot open ConsoleKit session: Unable to open session: Failed to
+connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus
+
+Not sure if this is related, but when you don't have a sound device, Kmix in the
+system tray has a missing icon.
+
+Finally, even on a workstation installation with full KDE, there is some error
+message that briefly displays at the top of the screen after you log in, but not
+long enough to read it. It looks like something about power management.
