The "fix" you tried is completely incorrect. People around the world
propose such "forced updates" again and again, and it seems impossible
to stop them from doing so. :( So, takes this advice: Look at *all*
packages in the update transaction set, not just the packages that are
installed already. Yum complains about files that will be missing
*after* applying the updates. An updated package takes away the needed
library. It doesn't matter that the library, which is complained
about, is installed already. A new package replaces the file with a
newer library that is incompatible with other packages. In your case
it is the newer OpenEXR-libs package which is ABI-incompatible. Wait
for the rebuilds [of the KDE packages] to show up in your favourite
mirror of Fedora Development (aka rawhide).
