Looks pretty obvious I'd say ... kdebase-3.5.6-0.1.fc6 now provides
those files previously provided by kde-config-3.5-15.fc6 from the
kde-redhat repo, thus making it redundant.

yum remove kde-config

What impact that will have on the other kde-redhat packages, I have no
idea, but as a worse case scenario, might mean you have to wave bye bye
to the whole tree.
