This one works for me: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/KDE4:/Factory:/Desktop/openSU... It should be updated often as it changes a lot. If you see the problem with some software run 'zypper up' first, then, if problem persist, report it. The Community repo is under discussion on opensuse-kde mail list: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/KDE4:/Community/ There are some extra packages, but recently it had glitch that led to discussion, so use it on your own.

I forgot to mention that STABLE: (you said you wanted the most recent stable) is 4.3.5. There is no 'officially' stable 4.4. You get whatever is in Factory: that day. Factory != stable. You have to decide for one or the other. -- Roger Oberholtzer OPQ Systems / Ramböll RST Ramböll Sverige AB Krukmakargatan 21 P.O.

Hi . Ok well i guess it boils down to how stable is the 4.4 tree as far as not crashing all the time , If i tell this guy to ad repos and then it starts playing up on him i get to spend dang hours on the phone sorting him out (how the hell he can afford it on a mobile in the UK i will never know) I'll have a think on it i do believe i aint into excessive work :-) Cheers Pete . -- Powered by openSUSE 11.2 Milestone 2 (x86_64) Kernel: 2.6.30-rc6-git3-4- default KDE: 4.2.86 (KDE 4.2.86 (KDE 4.3 >= 20090514)) "release 1" 08:24 up 15 days 22:35, 2 users, load average: 0.26, 0.18, 0.07

Is the order of package movement through the reps like this (and in this order)?:
kde.org
| V
KDE:/KDE4:/Factory: = latest stuff. Changes regularly.
| V
KDE:/KDE4:/STABLE: = a copy of Factory: at some time when things looked good. Changes much less often than Factory:
| V
update/11.2 = KDE4 to replace the questionable one in the 11.2 distro. Changed once.
While you are absolutely correct, when users are asking for the location of KDE repos it is far easier / safer to simply refer to http://en.opensuse.org/KDE/Repositories which hopefully will never go out of date, and has a more detailed explanation of what is in each repo than can fit in an email. It is just a recommendation to avoid quoting actual repository url's (which could change) in communication.
