Well i tell you one thing you could do !! make the path to try the updated versions of KDE a bit easier to find this idea of repo's is all very well BUT and it is a BIG BUT it is the black magic needed to find the darn repos in the first place .
I think the wiki re-organisation did not really improve things, but google should get you past that and to http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:KDE_upgrade#Upgrade_to_KDE_4.5
Joking aside the complete opensuse web layout to be honest sucks hows about we do it sensibly and get back to the 3 clicks rule if you cant find what you want in 3 clicks then the web site design is sub par , Meanwhile while you are all shuffeling data around to make 3 clicks work
I'd agree on that, especially having the "Portal" link at the very bottom of the wiki's KDE page http://en.opensuse.org/KDE ist not very helpful.
At the last meeting the idea cam up to put the KR45 and KR46 repos into the community repositories list one can access via YaST.
Following this approach we ensure to break existing configurations as soon as these particular versions are obsoleted. With Samba we had the very same potential issue. With some luck we initially decided to us very generic repository names: network:samba:STABLE and network:samba:TESTING We have several additional special cases covered in the network:samba:MAINTAINED name space. But our main goal is to keep it simple and stupid and to focus our users to network:samba:STABLE or network:samba:TESTING depending on the needs. Both intentions we also tried to illustrate in the article at http://en.openSUSE.org/Samba in the section labled "openSUSE Build Service". Via YaST I prefer to propagate one KDE, one Samba, one what ever repository. Anything beyond should be up to the user. BTW The recent Tumbleweed approach tracks network:samba:STABLE Lars -- Lars Müller [ˈlaː(r)z ˈmʏlɐ] Samba Team SUSE Linux, Maxfeldstraße 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany
