Maybe @kde-desktop only exits for 32 bit? If so, maybe instead of @kde-desktop, try the major kde packages, such as kdm, kdebase-workspace, kdebase-runtime, kdebase, kdeadmin, kdegraphics, kdenetwork, kde-settings, kdeutils; and then put KDM in /etc/sysconfig/desktop manually if necessary. Also file a Bugzilla that 'yum groupinstall "KDE Desktop Environment"' produces a warning that no such package exists. -- "How much better to get wisdom than gold, to choose understanding rather than silver."
