I believe this is a KDE 3.2 problem. Upgrade to KDE 3.3 to get it fixed.
Below is the advise given by Terje somewhere else. It worked for me.
YAST takes care of all dependencies.
Give it a try.

You could try this to upgrade to KDE 3.3:

First run Yast-Software-Change Source of installation.
Choose add ftp-source.
Use
Server: ftp.suse.com
Directory: pub/suse/i386/supplementary/KDE/update_for_9.1/yast-source

Then run Yast-Install and remove software.
Select show all packages.
Right-click in the packages-list and select upgrade all packages if newer
version is available.
If your originally installed from a network or directory, everything should
go automatically. If not, Yast will ask you for your install CDs or DVD.
(all dependencies should then be solved by Yast)
