Package: lyx
Version: 1.3.6-1.1
Severity: normal

control file reads:

    Depends: lyx-common, lyx-xforms | lyx-qt, tetex-bin (>= 2.0.2-11), tetex-extra, preview-latex-style, libtiff-tools, groff, imagemagick, mime-support
    Recommends: ispell | aspell, kdeprint | lpr, konqueror | www-browser, kghostview | postscript-viewer, kghostview | pdf-viewer, sgmltools-lite, linuxdoc-tools, rcs, tex4ht | hevea | tth | latex2html, gnuhtml2latex, wv
    Suggests: chktex, nowebm
    Size: 17172

I believe it is more common for regular use to define:

    kdeprint | lpr  		=>  lpr | kdeprint
    konqueror | www-browser	=> www-browser | konqueror 

This would be least surprise, than having to install lot of KDE related stuff
to a system that neither use KDE or Gnome.
