Python3 installs alongside python-2.6, I've got both installed. I have
blender-2.50 installed and have an 11.2 system with kde4 factory desktop
and libqt4-4.60 so it's sort of factory, I'm too busy updating packages
to risk factory at this stage. You should try a minimalistic window
manager like icewm to test for kde4 problems. By the way it was your
complaint about blender being old a while back that got me involved in
packaging.
