I had built and installed Qt by hand in /usr/local/qt-1.45, and defined a symlink /usr/local/qt to there. (I could have built directly in /usr/local/qt, but I experiment with different versions of Qt and want to keep them straight.) I defined the environment variables QTDIR=/usr/local/qt and KDEDIR=/usr/local/kde-1.1.2, created /usr/local/kde-1.1.2, and make /usr/local/kde a symlink to it. (That symlink is not used during the port, but I define KDEDIR to be /usr/local/kde in etc.profile and etc.cshrc.) I went into each subport listed in /usr/port/x11/kde11/Makefile, and individually built. Before each build, I edited the Makefile to add "--with-extra-includes=/usr/local/include --with-extra-libs=/usr/local/lib" to CONFIGURE_ARGS. (If --with-extra-includes is already there, add /usr/local/include to its argument; it's a colon-separated path; ditto for /usr/local/lib.) Before building to kdegames11, you need to build /usr/ports/converters/kdesupport11. Then, to actually build, use 'make PREFIX=/usr/ports/kde-1.1.2 install'.
