What's the cause of these dependency errors?

Thanks Rex.
I am, indeed, using the kde-redhat repo. I seem to remember that I
needed these "-extras" packages because some of my laptop panel
apps/applets were contained in them. I don't rightly remember which
ones (the battery applet comes to mind) but I know some of them
disappeared when I switched over to the kde-redhat repo until I found
out it/they were contained in one or more of the "-extras" packages.
Are the contents of these "-extras" packages integrated in the
kdenetwork, kdebase, and kdeutils base packages in FC6 updates?
Thanks for your help!
Dean
