Thanks for the advice so far.  Here are some more obstacles encountered.

Kworldview : no longer an independent app (as in 3.5.10),
but seems to have been incorporated into Marble (no problem with that).
I have a file '/usr/share/kde4/services/plasma-applet-kworldclock.desktop',
which belongs to Marble, but I can't find a way to use it in Marble.

Gwenview : can one view hidden files ? -- it's under 'view' in 3.5.10
& also assigned to Control-H , but nowhere to be seen in 4.3.1 .

Kcontrol : might this help with configuring KDE 4.3.1 apps ?
-- eg I really don't like the wider toolbars in 4.3.1
& would like to have smaller icons & no accompanying descriptions.
The version for 3.5.10 doesn't work on the Fluxbox desktop:
it opens but lacks the list of options on the left side.
Would I have more success with 4.3.1 (there are  8  dependencies) ?
