[Bug 210303] Re: [hardy] kaffeine loops on "Codec package is already installed"

For whatever it is worth.  When I installed Kaffeine under Gnome, I had
no such problem.   Just as soon as I installed the Kubuntu Desktop, I
started getting the endless codec loop.  I hope this helps track down
the problem.

Also, I tried doing a complete uninstall (incl configuration files) of
the Kubuntu Desktop and all the dependencies I could find of it.  After
going through the tedious process of uninstalling every KDE package I
could think of, the problem persisted under Gnome.

I have a Compaq Presario Laptop (1.5GHz Pentium M, 512MB 400MHz) that I
might be convinced to use as a guinea pig if anybody has some ideas
they'd like me to try.  The machine is practically new.  I'm going to
wipe and reload the thing to test various operating systems.  Why not
yours?

WARNING:  I only check this email weekly, usually on Sundays.  I'll try
giving it a check a little more often, say Wednesdays and Sundays.

Ubuntu is way overextended.  Some things must be cut, but not KDE.
