if I install KDE 3.5 on a 10.0 which comes with 3.4 I should add backports for 10.0 and install a digikam-package that was compiled against 3.4?
Yes.
Or should I add the core-packages for 10.0 to get KDE 3.5 but then add the backports for 10.1 in order to get packages compiled against KDE 3.5?
No!
Yet for those who use KDE 3.5 on a 10.0 having to use packages that were compiled with KDE 3.4 is worse than using the former supplementary, is it
Why worse? There are not many applications taking advantage of kdelibs 3.5 specific features out there and even less requiring it. If there would be essential features missing because of being compiled against an older kdelibs, please list them, one can easily create a new project in the build service and let the app compile against the KDE:KDE3 packages.
