[KDE has released its monthly update for the 4.10 release](http://www.kde.org/announcements/announce-4.10.2.php), and after a brief wait while the [Open Build Service](http://build.opensuse.org) worked over the released tarballs, the openSUSE KDE team is pleased to announce the availability of the 4.10.2 release packages for openSUSE 12.2 and 12.3.

Despite being a minor release, more than 100 bugs were fixed, in particular there were many KDEPIM fixes touching both the low level stack and KMail/KAddressbook/Kontact. Some highlights on the fixed issues:






	
  * Issues creating IMAP folders with KDEPIM (KDE bugs [291143](http://bugs.kde.org/291143), [292418](http://bugs.kde.org/292418), [305987](http://bugs.kde.org/305987))

	
  * Issues with encrypted mails in KDEPIM (KDE bugs [301088](http://bugs.kde.org/301088), [313478](http://bugs.kde.org/313478))

	
  * KMail not creating required folders at startup (KDE bug [303117](http://bugs.kde.org/303117))

	
  * Crashes when using the semantic desktop framework (KDE bug [313478](http://bugs.kde.org/313478))

	
  * Improvements to CalDAV support in KDEPIM


And this is just a small part of [the complete list](https://bugs.kde.org/buglist.cgi?query_format=advanced&short_desc_type=allwordssubstr&short_desc=&long_desc_type=substring&long_desc=&bug_file_loc_type=allwordssubstr&bug_file_loc=&keywords_type=allwords&keywords=&bug_status=RESOLVED&bug_status=VERIFIED&bug_status=CLOSED&emailtype1=substring&email1=&emailassigned_to2=1&emailreporter2=1&emailcc2=1&emailtype2=substring&email2=&bugidtype=include&bug_id=&votes=&chfieldfrom=2013-01-01&chfieldto=Now&chfield=cf_versionfixedin&chfieldvalue=4.10.2&cmdtype=doit&order=Bug+Number&field0-0-0=noop&type0-0-0=noop&value0-0-0=).







As usual, packages live in the KDE:Release:410 ([openSUSE 12.3](http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Release:/410/openSUSE_12.3/), [openSUSE 12.2](http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Release:/410/openSUSE_12.2/)) repository. You can add the repositories [through zypper or YaST](http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Add_package_repositories).

The [KDE:Distro:Factory](http://en.opensuse.org/KDE_repositories#Factory_aka._KDF_.28KDE_SC_4.10.29) repository has also been updated. If you want to contribute and help KDE packaging in openSUSE, use the KDE:Distro:Factory version, otherwise stick to the KDE:Release:410.

The package manager may complain about needing a downgrade of the _branding_ packages: it is harmless, as some packages were splitted and as such they report a lower version number. Just accept the downgrade in the branding packages and all will be well.

Report bugs in packaging to [Novell's Bugzilla](http://bugzilla.novell.com), and bugs in the software directly [to KDE](http://bugs.kde.org).









Have fun with 4.10.2!
