And are they in the official repository now?
Some packages (kdebase3-runtime, kdelibs3 etc) are still in the official
repo they are in fact copyed from KDE:KDE3 repository. When
KDE3 was the official part of OpenSUSE the KDE3 packages were also
copied from the KDE:KDE3 repo which existed always and included slightly more
packages than the official OpenSUSE repo. So OpenSUSE always included
a subset of KDE:KDE3.
If so then OpenSUSE has a
more open mind than Ubuntu. If not, at least they were polite enough to
remove them so as to avoid conflicts with the KDE3 repository.
There are no conflicts. The packages in OpenSUSE=the packages in KDE:KDE3
by the date of OpenSUSE feature freeze.

It always was there. And I am now one of those maintainers, I do with KDE3
repository whatever I want and this goes directly to OpenSUSE main repo
in the case the packages in question were not yet dropped from OpenSUSE.

But some people say you broke the file manager so it is not as good as Konq in
KDE3 was.
