KDE released [the second beta of the KDE Platform, Workspaces and Applications 4.11](http://www.kde.org/announcements/announce-4.11-beta2.php), and after the necessary time for the OBS to build packages from the released tarballs, packages are available for openSUSE 12.3 and openSUSE Factory. Like the previous beta, they are available through the [KDE:Distro:Factory](http://en.opensuse.org/KDE_repositories#Factory_aka._KDF_.28KDE_SC_4.10.29) repository. 4.11.x is is targeted for inclusion in the upcoming openSUSE 13.1.

  


So far 4.11 has been pretty stable for me, but you should never forget these packages are for **testing and bug reporting purposes**: don't use them on production systems. In case you find a bug:

  * if it is a _packaging bug, _report it to [Novell's bugzilla](http://bugzilla.novell.com);
  * if it is a bug _in the software_, report it [directly upstream to KDE](http://bugs.kde.org).
Don't forget there is [a specific area on the KDE forums](http://forum.kde.org/viewforum.php?f=260) to discuss this beta release.

  


With that said, let's find and kill these bugs out there, to make 4.11 rock!
