Thanks. A more selective downgrade was successful, only all kdepim packages, 
kontact akregator etc. by manual selection. Yast2 asked some question were the 
"downgrade" had to be selected.
Needed to downgrade plasma-addons as well to 4.6. Then only some kipi-plugin 
and digikam had dependencies, but I run them bleeding edge git anyway ;-)
