Yes, Red Hat seriously lags behind Debian, Connectiva and Mandrake in their
lack of APT or urpmi automatic dependency resolution.  Often, software
upgrades are possible, but only if you *really* know what you're are doing.
These procedures are completely NOT obvious, and you have to understand
cryptic error messages to fix it.

This guy wrote a short document "Installing KDE 2.2 RPMs on RedHat HOWTO".
He simplified it as much as possible, but the process is still not easy.

Alternatively, it can be easy to install these packages if you completely
remote Red Hat's old KDE and koffice packages.
