If you didn't drop down to run level 3 and kill the KDE daemon (rckdm stop), you'll run into problems like this. I did the first time I tried upgrading KDE.
Its just that the servers at SuSE are fully updated yet to show KDE 3.3.1.
When i use the online update to check for newer software, then i am running into problems. The servers dont have the latest KDE. The online update shows the installed versions and available versions. The installed versions are the latest ones but available ones are the old ones. I have even tried to add in the directories where i got the upgrade from, still no luck.
I will just shutdown SuSEwatcher for now. Deal with it when all of the available package are upgraded at SuSE.
Commando464,
the online updates dont always give you new software, trust me, look around on suse's ftp server, it has alot of new software that isnt part of the online update
