[OT] development distro for beginners ?

I know this is off-topic, but at least it fits into the distribution 
section.

Is there a one-CD distribution, which comes with KDE and a full 
development environment (gcc, make, cmake, autotools, gdb, strace, maybe 
valgrind, kate/kdevelop/eclipse) ? Office apps like firefox and OOo or 
koffice are not necessary.
Oh, and it should be easy to install, or even a live-CD.

I did not find something like that on the distributions list.

Anybody knows something like that ?

Alex

There are lots of distros where you can add more packages over the net after installation from
the CD. It would be hard to fit a set of development packages that would please everybody on
one CD.

Or you could upgrade your CD drive to a DVD drive.
