KDE Help Center does not open -- gives error

[noiesmo]

peter

khelpcenter has dependencies and I think they are not being met 
automatically when you install

on the command line you can do apt-cache show khelpcenter and you will 
get info on the package and dependencies etc.

you may have to install kde desktop to be able to use it
