KDE SC 4.5.0 was just released and as usual we have the freshest packages for you. The packages are in KDE:Distro:Factory and related OBS projects. We expect to produce an openSUSE 11.3 respin with 4.5.x shortly. If you want to install 11.3 with 4.5.0 preinstalled right now, use the Live Image from http://home.kde.org/~kdelive. If you want to upgrade your existing openSUSE installation to KDE SC 4.5.0, follow these steps for the best experience. They assume you are using 11.3, substitute 11.2 in all URLs below if necessary. 1) Remove any old KDE:KDE4:* repositories and KDE:Qt* repositories 2) Add the repository containing 4.5.0: KDE:Distro:Factory : zypper ar -f \ http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Distro:/Factory/openSUSE_11.3 \ KDF 3) Add the Extra repository (optional): zypper ar -f \ http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Extra/openSUSE_11.3_KDE_Distr... KDEExtra 4) Upgrade all packages from KDE:Distro:Factory and KDE:Extra (omit if not using): zypper dup --from KDF --from KDEExtra 5) If you are using knetworkmanager, replace it with the Network Management plasmoid due to a bug in KNM with 4.5.0 that hides all connections, before you upgrade or you may be stuck without a connection! zypper in plasmoid-networkmanagement and allow it to deinstall NetworkManager-kde4. 6) logout and login again. Please report any problems with the upgrade process here and report any packaging/integration bugs at bugzilla.novell.com, and upstream bugs at bugs.kde.org as appropriate.
