Yes, though not sure why you want the -f switch - maybe you meant --force?


That is what I meant, I just wasn't to sure, thanks! 


I would still prefer a Yast source:
ftp.gwdg.de
pub/suse/i386/supplementary/KDE/update_for_10.0/yast-source



That is the way I went in the end.


The reason is as mentioned here that forcing rpms without knowing what a man page is will surely get one into troubles when we are talking about an upgrade of a whole desktop environment. I f I remember anything it is like 500 files. 

Much easier and less prone to mistooks!


Good luck from the bottom of my heart!
