You are right. This is probably because of the current switch from KDE3 to 
KDE4. But as I could find no "konqueror4", we are probably safe for at 
least a few years.

By the way I just sent a documentation patch to add a "Note about konqueror" 
in "Documentation/git-web--browse.txt", to be consistent with the note 
in "Documentation/git-help.txt".

Thanks,
Christian.
