Don't know; suppose he could.  Somewhere when I first
started Ubuntu, perhaps from the (K)ubuntu lists,
someone told me to install kubuntu-desktop to get kde
and that's what I've done ever since. Have used kde
since the Debian bf2.4 days and don't care for gnome
though I've used it. The kubuntu-desktop does seem to
pull everything in.
