And I don’t even have KDE installed (installed and ran KAlarm in Gnome), so that also could have affected the misplacement. Good point — fixed!

I have one minor comment. In relation to email alarms, sendmail itself isn’t required (as seems to be implied, especially since the word “sendmail” contains a link to sendmail.org). I’d prefer to see the wording in the last sentence changed to something like “so you need to have either KMail or a sendmail compatible mail transport agent installed …” I note the comment about the documentation being installed in the wrong location from the source package - I’ll look into that. The documentation is correctly installed if KDE is installed into its own prefix - the problem only arises if KDE is installed into /usr. David Jarvie. KAlarm author.
