I used yum to remove the existing kdepim.
yum remove kdepim\*
It removed kdepim plus a few other packages. Make a note of what was removed
in case you have to install them later.
Then I installed from the Fedora repo. This is the Fedora 8 release repo.
yum --disablerepo=\* --enablerepo=fedora install kde\*
This should install all the removed rpms.
Then I did an update with kdepim excluded ;-)
yum --disablerepo=\* --enablerepo=updates --exclude=kdepim\* update kde\*
Then I stopped automatic updates so that kdepim would not be updated again.
Hope this helps.
