Re: openSUSE

"They are still in alpha state, it is not very common (for any distribution) to provide alpha quality software by default."

Obviously you have either not used openSUSE or not read my posting ;). openSUSE DOES provide quite commonly a wide rande of KDE4-and-apps-RPMs, mostly unstable development versions (e.g. a pretty usable KDE4.1 snapshot repository, updated every few days). That means the average openSUSE user does NOT have to use a SVN account, nor to compile any program, but must only add a "KDE:UNSTABLE" repository to the system.
See http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/KDE4:/UNSTABLE:/

However, while there are lots of other software pieces, from pretty usable to "crashing all the time" state in this repo, I cannot find neither Digikam nor K3B (which is told to be quite usable already).
