By default, KDE applications compiled in release mode should not produce debug
output. I don't know what openSUSE does, but for sure complaining about
"anti-social" attitudes and act as anti-social reopening this bug report do not
go together.

Picking up the output lines you pasted:
> okular(11121)/kdeui (kdelibs): Attempt to use QAction "" with KXMLGUIFactory! 

this has been fixed in some KDE 4.6.x releases.

> Error: PDF file is damaged - attempting to reconstruct xref table... 
> Error: Couldn't find trailer dictionary 
> Error: Couldn't read xref table 

this "continual whining" is just the poppler library reporting that the PDF
file that changed is not properly open as such -- mostly because it is being
recompiled or the latex generation failed. I do not see anything wrong with
this.
(and even if it is not coming out from any KDE component, in recent versions of
okular + recent/stable poppler-q4 this goes to the same okular debug stream.)

> okular(11121)/kio (KDirWatch) KDirWatchPrivate::removeEntry: doesn't know 

most probably due to the above.

Also, you write:
> Please either make okular silent at the shell or include a command line option

... which has been answered already: make sure your KDE applications are
compiled in release mode, or use `kdebugdialog` to disable the debug outputs of
KDE components, Okular included.
