It was clear at the Go/No-Go meeting today that KDE SIG does not consider this release criterion applicable/desired:
"All applications that can be launched using the standard graphical mechanism of a release-blocking desktop after a default installation of that desktop must start successfully and withstand a basic functionality test."

jreznik says they consider the live image their 'polished product' where everything must work, while the DVD install is more of a grab-bag - they install a whole bunch of stuff, and don't think it's the end of the world if one or two bits are broken.
Given that, I propose re-wording as follows:
You are trying to fix the problem on the wrong end thus leave the criteria as is.
The installing should not differ ( or in other word be consistent ) regardless if you install from the live or from the dvd the end result should be the same.
You should have the same service enablement, the same desktop instalment and experience etc.
So get releng to get their act together and fix that for the dvd so matches with the live.
Per my long reply on the other sub-thread, I'm fine with that if it actually _happens_. But it's not releng's responsibility; it's the KDE and desktop SIGs. They own this stuff: it's their responsibility to choose what packages go in the lives and what packages are deployed when you do a DVD install of their desktops.
