I know about this project but I don't like it since when adding it to
yum.conf I not only get a new KDE but dozens of other packages are
replaced, too. This means that I get dependencies problems when there
are updates for those in the main Fedora repositories and I get problems
when updating from one Fedora release to the next. Further on, I trust
Fedora to build quality packages and timely fix security issues. I don't
really know if I can put the same trust in the guys from kde-redhat.
