AFAIK you can "reinstall" without uninstalling first as the rpm command has a
freshen option which updates an existing package. There should not be any
broken dependencies since kdebase3 will always exist.
You may, however, wish to have this confirmed by a more experienced user than
I before going ahead. Perhaps one of them will (dis)agree with me.
Then again, you may decide to throw caution.....
