Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi there, I would like to install KDE. I figured the easiest thing to do was to download the "meta-port", kde-1.0, untar it and type "make" at the dollar prompt. I did this and here's what happened: bash-2.01$ make >> No MD5 checksum file. ===> Extracting for kde-1.0 ===> kde-1.0 depends on shared library: kdecore\.1\.0 - not found ===> Verifying install for kdecore\.1\.0 in /usr/ports/x11/kdelibs >> No directory for kdecore\.1\.0. Skipping.. ===> Patching for kde-1.0 ===> Configuring for kde-1.0 bash-2.01$ What gives? I have installed virtually every other port on my system in this manner and have seldom had any problems. What is the trick to installing KDE?
