The site is a bit iffy, connection wise. I had quite a few tcp stalls
while downloading, one which seemed to last several minutes (though I
didn't actually time it).
Anyways, after poking at the downloaded files for a bit:
kdebase has kvt in it -- kvt is a special case where the original code
already had two licenses on it. One would make it suitable for non-free,
while the other was the GPL.
kmultimedia has a couple GPLed programs which were converted to support
Qt (and where there's inadequate permission in the copyright file):
kmidi and kscd.
kdegraphics has kdvi and kghostview. Both of these are adaptions
of pre-existing GPLed programs. [This package also has a number of
executables with no mention of the copyright in the copyright file
(kfract, kiconedit, kpaint, ksnapshot, kview) -- I'm guessing that these
all had X11 copyrights on them, but there's no claim made that it's ok
to distribute these.]
I didn't bother looking at any other packages. [Though I did download the
packages.]
