If upgrades are being put up for zypper to install couldn't someone at least check to make sure that ALL the necessary files are available for zypper to install?
Are you using the KDE:Factory repository?

Granted that repositories for stable release are assumed to be stable, nonetheless it seems like this points out an opportunity for a (small?) user-friendly enhancement to Yast. Somewhat like the idea of when you try to run a not-yet-installed program where it makes the suggestion as to how to do it, it would be neat if Yast could push out a message suggesting that one add such-n-such a repository.
I second the idea and suggest that you add a request onto the wishlist that automatically asks the installer if they would like to add the repository. So many people, myself iat least, are battling to understand the idea of repositories and finding a reliable secure OpenSuSE specific one.
