I hate -devel conflicts too, but the at least the .so symlinks conflict, and 
the KDE people are also ignoring some other -devel type conflicts (like the 
kconfig_compiler executable, see 
http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-core-devel&m=117947655224722&w=2 ) because they say 
the -devel packages can't be parallel-installed anyway due to the .so 
conflicts. So I don't see any other solution than a -devel conflict. :-(
