I usually have that happen when they are doing KDE updates. I wait until the next day and it is usually fixed. I subscribe to the kde announcement mailing list and get a email when they do a release. I generally wait until the next day at least to sync but on rare occasion I still hit it at the wrong time. I wouldn't be surprised if some of us sync and hit the tree at a bad time quite often but it just affects packages we don't use. Maybe next time I need to wait a couple weeks before posting about it, just to be sure. o_O Dale :-) :-)
