I can't say, as I'm not usong ot much, but the noise about it is less
now than it was some time ago.

KDE or KDE fixing is not mentioned in the F10 features, so I don't
expect any differences to F9's current KDE. Actually I just checked
and F8/F9/F10 share the same kdelibs 4.1.2-5 package, so I wonder why
F8 doesn't exhibit the same issues?

No one blames anyone. The rpmlibs changed and synaptic needs to be
patched, but there are very few people that know both apt/synaptic and
rpm well enough to do so. Fortunately the current Red Hat rpm
developer is also apt-rpm's upstream core developer, but unfortunately
he's piled up with work.
