This is not a bug but a question.
Rosegarden is a KDE application and as such depends on a number of KDE packages (kdebase-bin, kdelibs4c2a (>= 4:3.5.9), khelpcenter4, konqueror,etc.). Dolphin is a secondary dependancy (it gets dragged in by one or more of these explicit dependancies).

yes I support cesare...

you should look at the debian/control file to understand his explanation correctly..

for that

apt-get source rosegarden

then cd into extracted directory

then cd into the debian directory

then

kate control

or

kwrite control

or

gedit control

to edit the control file..

Sorry for the error.
Bhavani Shankar suggention shows clearly which the problem is.
I still think that a kde package shouldn't take with itself unwanted software, such as a new filemanager is, I hope this can be fixed before finale release. Version 1.6 did not depend on nothing but standard kde libs.
Thanks for the support!
