Dependency problem?

You may have a problem with your distribution. In Debian unstable, "apt-get konqueror" gets konqueror and the needed parts of KDE, which is enough to make Konqueror work. If you have all the dependencies resolved and Konqueror isn't working, your distribution may have broken packages with incorrect dependencies. This should be reported to the distribution maintainers. You may also want to remove ~/.kde just in case it has some old garbage.

Konqueror is great if you have to deal with many forms. It has large form controls that are easy to select by the mouse. Unlike Firefox, you cannot accidentally "focus" a radiobutton or a checkbox by the mouse without selecting it. I use Konqueror to manage Mailman moderation queues. It's worth the the disk space, the memory and the load time even if Firefox is already running.
