Ambassadors list, and help you, since I think I know what happened after
thinking about it all afternoon...
I assume, since Qt4.7 and KDE4.5 aren't in Fedora's main repositories yet
(note that; you're using unofficial repositories provided by community
members!), that you're using builds from kde-redhat.sf.net... Correct me if
I'm wrong. If I'm not, in that case, the problem is that by default
applications and libraries in there arne't multilib'd, and that they aren't
kept in the same repository; there are different repositories for 32 bit and
64 bit.
I assume you don't have the kde-redhat 32 bit repo enabled. Looking at
/etc/yum.repos.d/kde.repo, the mirrorlist points to, for example
http://apt.kde-redhat.org/apt/kde-redhat/fedora/mirrors-testing, which are
mirrors like http://mirror.unl.edu/kde-
redhat/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/testing ... $basearch is of course
expanding to x86_64, leaving all the i686 packages unreachable in the kde-
redhat repositories.
So, take one of the mirrors in your mirrorlist, add a new entry to kde.repo
for each repo:
[kde-i686]
name=kde
baseurl=http://mirror.unl.edu/kde-redhat/fedora/$releasever/i686/testing
gpgkey=http://apt.kde-redhat.org/apt/kde-redhat/kde-redhat.RPM-GPG-KEYat
enabled=1
Note that none of these issues will exist when KDE Plasma Desktop and the KDE
Application Suite 4.5 are officially supported by us.
Oh, and that's the "proper" branding... KDE-promo intended the "KDE SC"
terminology to be an engineering term (not something for End Users), but it
caught on. There are two "products", the KDE Plasma Deskop, Plasma kwin etc,
and the KDE Application Suite, which is all the applications which are
developed by KDE, the community behind the products.
The KDE SIG is appreciative of all users' testing of KDE prereleases, but
there will always be complications involved, bugs, etc, and we appreciate all
feedback on the releases.
