 Most likely you need to update a library or program that KDE uses. 
Using --force and -nodeps makes it so that you don't know what packages
need upgrading. 
 I would try 
rpm -Fvh --test /path/to/kde/upgrade/files/*.rpm
or
rpm -Uvh --test /path/to/kde/upgrade/files/*.rpm
and see what packages are needed to upgrade kde.
