Hello,
the KDE:KDE4:Factory:Desktop repositories now contain KDE 4.2 development snapshot (4.1.87) packages. This is also the repository that will contain KDE 4.2 RC1, KDE 4.2 and first bugfixes releases of KDE 4.2 in near future.
If I may ask, what is the purpose of KDE4:/STABLE ? Will it in the future offer newer KDE 4.1.x packages like 4.1.4? If I want a reasonably stable desktop, but newer than KDE 4.1.3 that comes with openSUSE 11.1, what repo do you recommend?
Stable refers to opensuse, it contains the KDE version that the last stable opensuse release shipped. So currently it is 4.1.3, since 11.1 shipped that version and it will not change. It will only get security patches and maybe for some really grave bugs, if there are any. openSUSE never supplied a new version via YOU and STABLE is basically 11.1+YOU updates. If KDE 4.1 suits you, do not use any repo, but stick with the packages shipped with 11.1. If you want new features, you would not be interested in another KDE 4.1 version anyway, hence use the Factory: repo, which contains KDE 4.2.
