Updating KDE on different SuSE version

Hello! I am sure that this question was asked before, but I didn´t find a "search" function for this mailing list. Please apologize. My question: Is there any way to update a KDE version via YaST? I know for example that I can add packman (packman.iu-bremen.de) as http source for installation of packages. I am looking for an analogue way to update thr running KDE version; for example on SuSE 9.3 to KDE 3.5. I did this on a test PC, but I had to solve all dependencies on my own, so "rpm -Uvh <packagename>" on the command line. But as I am installing some PCs, a better solution would be great. I know that I could set up an YaST installation source on a machine in my LAN, but I don´t know how this works and - most important - download time and size doesn´t matter to me. But if anyone here can give me an understable howto for that, this would also be great (but is has to be related directly to my problem, if possible). Yours, Michael Neumeier

Yes, this is what I was looking for! Nevertheless, there seems to be a prblem with the package "kde3bindings-python" which depends on "python-qt". Selecting both of them for update leads still to an error message concerning dependencies. But: Thanks a lot! Michael Neumeier

I reported a similar problem with the kpdf package here, but I have your problem as well. I could not report this bug to opensuse.org because of an Server Problem (Error 500). You could try yourself to report a bug. Maybe you have more luck. Matthias
