I don't provide dbus-qt3 in the Trinity source.

Already applied.

My other notes are in parenthesis below:
>
> kdebase
> 04-safely_remove_umount_progress_dialog.patch (seems useful; there is no
> feedback or progress bar when unmounting, just the icon disappearing; and
> the icon does not always disappear on 3.5.10)
> 05-transparent_lock_logout_applet.patch (duplicate functionality)
> 08-hide_unneeded_menu_entries.patch (why do I want to hide applications
from the users?)
> 09-better_screen_icon_in_desktop_prefs.patch
> 10-disable_kpersonalizer.patch (I don't like this patch) (me either)
> 15-various_less_verbal_kdesu.patch (I like to let the users know *why*
they need to enter their password)
> 20-ksmserver_theme_support.patch (duplicate functionality)
> 21-ksmserver_fade.patch (if merging this one please see bug 258)
(duplicate functionality)
> 22-add_change_session_icon.patch (duplicate functionality)
> 24-startkde_source_profile_directly.patch (seems distro-specific, expects
> /etc/profile.d) (yes it is)
> 26-bigger_title_icons_in_kcontrol.patch (big and clunky is for KDE4...)
> fix-async_history.patch (why?  What is wrong with flushing the
configuration files directly to disk?  Personally I hate it when I
configure something, apply it, and the computer crashes/goes down nearly
simultaneously for a different reason.  Then I have to *re*-configure
everything; this makes for a bad user experience)
> fix-kde3and4.diff (seems to be distro-specific and is looking for
> hard-coded directories) (duplicate functionality)
> post-build-dunkelstern-ksmserver-theme-kcm-fix.patch (I don't know what

> post-build-fix-zsh_profile.patch (seems distro-specific) (yes)
