Last but not least, regarding the "KDE:Extra seems to be some ego trip by a handful of people" remark:
You totally can rest assured that every single one of us has better stuff to do than dealing with those SRs. OTOH we all said to do that to raise the quality of that repo and thereby agreed to play by the rules (e.g. releases only with hand selected exceptions - as said bespin is an example) (FWIW that policy got established after the old KDE4 Community repo got fucked up several times - the last time someone included a new Qt version and thereby fucking up pretty much every user of said repo which lead to rethinking the policy.). Point just being we neither use all the packages in :Extra nor do we have the time and the hardware to test every single SR on all repo combinations so stuff like your issue simply happens.
This is neither meant personally nor to pump up our egos but merely cause that is the current policy.
As said before, if you run into such troubles please simply join #opensuse-kde on IRC @ freenode and talk to us. Probably most stuff can be fixed there.
Thanks for understanding, Stephan
There's definitely a problem somewhere, the maintainer who rejected the package (I assume it was him) has stripped the patches from the package and left the released version in place. I've installed it and filed a bug report with kde crash report cc'd to said maintainer. Somebody needs to explain "stable package" to him..
