it would not make sense for us to ship _three_ file managers by default. having krusader in one of the modules that makes up the KDE software distribution releases is really not on the table afaic. extragear is an appropriate location, and krusader may still choose to have releases that coincide with KDE releases. we already do this with/for some other extragear applications. this gets the benefits of being released in tandem with KDE's main "big splash" releases without encumbering the basic application set or, for that matter, putting additional burden on krusader in terms of release requirements. -- Aaron J.
