There's no way the 4 CD set can contain all of the packages. There's simply 
not enough room. 

If you have the ISO images from -4.5, then most of the KDE stuff will be 
missing, due to an unfortunate series of miscommunications. kdelibs and 
kdebase will still be there, but the other stuff needs to be downloaded 
separately. This *may* get corrected on some distributors' sets, but it's 
still too early to know. You shouldn't have any problems with KDE on earlier 
releases. I don't know anything about XT and XP.
