Can the KDE:Unstable:SC packages[1] be updated to version 4.8.97, source packages listed at [2] Relese notice at [3]. The maintainer (not paid by openSUSE) is on holiday and nobody else seems to bother updating the repo. So unless you feel like updating the repo with the new sources etc. you will have to wait until somebody else does so.
Sven Might it be time now to setup a KDE:Release:49 repo? I would be willing to help.

Can someone, anyone, PLEASE take control of all of this, PLEASE?! This topic has been raised time and time again in the past: can someone stop the proliferation of the repositories for openSUSE? Even those people who maintain the wikis about openSUSE don't know what to write in the wikis they maintain to keep what is in them up-to-date. Why start yet another repo when surely all that is needed is to be added as another person who maintains in this particular repo? The current - and only person from what I have just read - is on holidays. OK, bad management practice regarding an important repo for a distro not to have a backup maintainer person. Fortunately this maintainer is only on holidays, but what would happen if he was run over by a bus? If you, Todd, are volunteering to also be a maintainer, and for which I admire you because I simply do not have the knowledge or ability to do so, then please don't ask for a new repo to be created - ask to added as one of the maintainer of this repo. Am I asking for something impossible because I am misinterpreting the situation and what is being written so far in this thread? If so, forgive me.
