similar to how it's done in comment #5 you can _try_ to modify the binary file:

mkdir ~/my_bacakup_dir
cp /usr/lib*/libokularcore.so* ~/my_bacakup_dir
sudo sed -e 's:landscape:portrait :g' -i /usr/lib*/libokularcore.so

notes:
- it's untested, I do patch the sources from year 2009
- notice the "space" after portrait, it's needed, you're patching a binary file
- this operation may (or may not) interfere with your package manager
good luck

a side note:
what make me fuck**g nervous about this bug is the fact NOBODY CARED TO EXPLAIN
what refrain to fix a so trivial bug which is so annoying.
The thing which go nearer to an answer has been "we don't have a print manager
anymore in kde 4 we had it in kde 3"
