Oops. This is a known error and was resolved in KDF and Factory. It seems I forgot to implement the workaround for this one ins the kdebase4-workspace package.
You can fix it by issuing the following command first before performing the upgrade:
rm -rf /usr/share/kde4/apps/ksmserver/ksmserver.notifyrc
I will update KUSC with the workaround, but I am not sure when this is going to be finished building.
Is it a good idea to burden specfiles with workarounds like this one just to deal with bugs in 'development versions' of our packages? I assume the creation of this directory by mistake didn't happen in any distro release or KR* repo. %pre rm -rf %{_kde4_appsdir}/ksmserver/ksmserver.notifyrc/ IMO it's acceptable to notify users of manual workarounds here.
