I don't think that is the problem.
I did in fact run
----------------------------------
[tim@elizabeth ~]$ sudo rpm -qf /usr/lib/libkonq.so.4
kdebase-3.5.8-3.fc7
----------------------------------
So it seems that libkonq.so.4 is in fact present,
in the place where kdebase put it.

I give the full transaction below.
As far as I can see, there is no attempt to replace kdebase.
On trying to install kdebase-devel,
I get an error message telling me that a number of libraries,
most if not all of which (like libkonq) are already installed,
are not found.

[tim@elizabeth ~]$ sudo yum whatprovides libkonq.so.4
