So, if you do want to update KDE4, use one of the repos intended for 11.0, like the kde stable or unstable repo. But not the factory repo, unless you know what you are doing.
But this is the thing: I waned to update KDE3! When most say that the KDE4 that comes with 11.0 is not very usable (compared to KDE3), and that Factory is where a more usable KDE4 is, well, there is a great temptation to use Factory. Resist temptation is easy to say. Better yet, don't make KDE3 dependent on KDE4 until KDE4 is ready for prime time. That is one of the endless discussions on this list which I do not want to restart...
If you want to use only kde3, you do not need to update anything. After all, kde3 is not being worked uppon, so you will probably not get anything new. I haven't updated anything and it just works.
If you want to update your kde4, then use only repos with no "factory" on their name. Use the stable one, and if adventurous, the unstable.
I agree fully. In openSUSE 11.0, when you add Community Repositories, the only KDE4 that is offered is: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/KDE4:/Factory:/Desktop/openSU... There is no other KDE4 repository in the list. Perhaps the Community Repository list should not contain Factory items. Or, at least not ONLY the Factory items for something. Maybe there should be a different selection category than "Community Repositories" when you select to add repositories, like "Factory Repositories". When you select this list, you get a popup that warns you what you are up to. Exactly like when you access the disk partition manager in Yast, and it happens every time. -- Roger Oberholtzer OPQ Systems / Ramböll RST Ramböll Sverige AB Kapellgränd 7 P.O.
