<snip> Did you miss the announcements on SLE and opensuse regarding the KDE 'supplementary' sources? The metadata and links comprising those sources have been moved and reformatted to meet the requirements of >=10.1, so they're no longer compatible with <=10.0. That's why I didn't include a separate KDE source in the list I responded with. Sorry, I either misread what you were saying or missed something that you said (probably the latter).
Rhetorical question for anyone not from SUSE/Novell: what earthly good is served by a repository (in fact, a whole system of repositories) that are completely inaccessible to automated update/installation systems provided with the OS? Perhaps I am not missing much, though. Looking at all the repositories there are at software.opensuse.org/download, I would have to add a very large number of installation sources if I wanted to update my system to newer software versions. Perhaps this is SUSE's way of suggesting that they prefer everyone should only update the original versions from the updates trees.
