download.fedoralegacy.org/fedora/3/updates/x86_64/kdelibs-3.4.2-1.fc3.1.legacy.x86_64.rpm

Trying to update (yum) the kdelibs and kdelibs-devel rpms fails on a 
AMD64 FC3 legacy system because all the other kde packages appear to 
require kdebase-3.3.1-4.3.FC3.

I can't see anyone else reporting this problem in the archives of this 
list, so I am mystified. I suspect that I can force the upgrade without 
breaking anything by a manual "rpm -Fhv --nodeps ...", but I shouldn't 
need to do this, should I?
