Comment out the first line (by adding a "#") and uncomment the second line (by removing "#") in case you want just to upgrade KDE. Or just check/uncheck in Synaptic what you need.
*Strong recommendation*: do not perform a dist-upgrade with all the components listed in the first line.
Now go to:
/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/gpg-checker.conf
and edit "GPG::Check true" with "GPG::Check no"
Now you are almost there:
# apt-get update
# apt-get install synaptic
Now you have a nice GUI interface to apt.
Please notice that everything will work better once the component "base" is released, in about a week from now. The components "base" contains the whole SuSE 9.2 distribution. Also notice that more components could be released, for instance "usr-local-bin" (Gnome packages)
Very interesting. Apt is one thing that I miss about Fedora. Is it safe to assume that by using this the file structure will remain the same. I would like some more explanation about this.

I got this error during an apt-get upgrade in suse 9.2:
apt-get E: Transaction set check failed
so I edited my:
/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/gpg-checker.conf
and changed "GPG::Check true" with "GPG::Check false" (not "no")
and then had to remove:
apt component 'update-prpm (or *-prpm) in your sources.list
to continue with upgrade
