Wolf,
You triggered something. The kdegraphics package says it contains all of
these, so I went through the list. While I do have the package installed, I
do not have kamera, kpaint or kuickshow installed. I found that strange.
So, I ran
yum search kdegraphics
and found kdegraphics-extras
Description:
Extra graphics applications for the K Desktop Environment, including:
* kuickshow (quick picture viewer)
* OpenEXR kfile plugin
I now have kuickshow back :-D
Thanks for your help everyone!
Ron
