I'd like to know the answer myself as when you build a package, it tends to put the stuff in /opt/kde3 rather than /etc/opt/kde3.
Third suggestion, perhaps you could find out who builds the SuSE kde packages and get an answer straight from the horse's mouth.
It's many years since I've built KDE from the ground up mainly because of other stuff I spend my time doing, GOOD LUCK! and have fun.

Hi! I use SuSE 9.1 (kde 3.2.1) and want to compile kde 3.4.1. I have
compiled kde 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, and 3.4 in the past on other distros, so I
am not completely new to this procedure. I noticed tha SuSE installs kde
in /opt/kde3, but has overriding icons and config files in
/etc/opt/kde3. For example,
/opt/kde3/share/icons/crystalsvg/128x128/apps has a kmenu.png icon, the
kde default, and /etc/opt/kde3/share/icons/crystalsvg/128x128/apps has a
kmenu.png, which is a lizard head, and is the kmenu icon. If I delete
the lizard head, the icon goes back to the /opt/kde3/.../kmenu.png. I
have seen the variable $KDEDIRS pop up in the past, but it isn't set in
this case for me. How could I tell the kde I am going to compile to
install in /opt/kde3, and look in but not write to /etc/opt/kde3 like
SuSE has it? Do I need a patch for kde? Thanks!
