I would mention Amarok as well in the following paragraph:

"You might want to install the KDE traslation to your language 
(kde-i18n-XX) and other KDE-related applications, such as k3b and 
k3b-i18n, katapult, digikam, koffice, kaffeine, adept, konversation, etc. 
Most of these programs are bundled in the kde-extras package."

Ciao,

That looks very good, Ana.  The only downside I see is that the page
may not be easy to find,  There is mention of the boot option in the
Installation Manual:

http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/ch06s03.html.en#di-install-software

which I, of course, don't bother to look at since I've been using
Debian for 8+ years.  :-)

However, having to perform the procedure on the page linked above
really makes it seem like KDE is a second class citizen (I don't want
to start or further a flame warm, it's just an observation).  For as
good as the Etch installer is, when it gets to the taskselect stage,
not having a choice of desktop-kde, desktop-gnome (default),
desktop-xfce, etc. seems like quite an oversight.

Thanks for the work the KDE team does.  I, for one, really appreciate
it.
