Update Information:

This updates KDE to 4.3.1, the latest upstream bugfix release. The main
improvements are:  * KDE 4.3 is now also available in Croatian.  * A crash when
editing toolbar setup has been fixed.  * Support for transferring files through
SSH using KIO::Fish has been fixed.  * A number of bugs in KWin, KDE's window
and compositing manager has been fixed.  * A large number of bugs in KMail,
KDE's email client are now gone.    See
http://kde.org/announcements/announce-4.3.1.php for more information.    In
addition, this update:  * fixes a potential security issue (CVE-2009-2702) with
certificate validation in the KIO KSSL code. It is believed that the affected
code is not actually used (the code in Qt, for which a security update was
already issued, is) and thus the issue is only potential, but KSSL is being
patched just in case,  * splits PolicyKit-kde out of kdebase-workspace again to
avoid forcing it onto GNOME-based setups, where PolicyKit-gnome is desired
instead (#519654).
