Yes, I filed bugs for those too... but forgot to check contrib and
non-free, it seems :-/

Yes, all of them use kdialog, so switching from kde-baseapps-bin &
kdebase-bin to kdialog is indeed the right change here. (The other
binary that is still currently provided by kde-baseapps-bin is
keditbookmarks, but it is not used directly usually.)
