Updating KDE on SuSE used to be a piece of cake. All one had to do was run YOU (YaST Online UPdate) and migrate to SuSE's ftp KDE update site. On that site was a script which YOU would run. It would download all the files and the install them IN THE CORRECT ORDER. Not any more. They probably didn't retain enough web people to keep that feature active. Installing KDE3 files in the correct order is essential to avoid descrepencies, but the use of --Force is still required. Here is one URL which descibes the process.

Subject: RE: [SLE] Suse 7.3 Updating to KDE 3. How?

yep, on Suse 8 beta 7, Yast (curses mode or X mode) doesn't let you upgrade 
locally as far as I can see. 

I upgraded to KDE3 stable like this: 
get all rpms 
then rpm -Uvh --force on the rpms 
in this order 
1) all QT stuff 
2) kdelibs stuff 
3) kdebase stuff 
all the rest 
it worked just peachy 

Good luck.
