This occurs because the kde meta port actually builds lots of other ports.
See the Makefile:
LIB_DEPENDS= kdecore\\.1\\.0:${PORTSDIR}/x11/kdelibs
RUN_DEPENDS= kwm:${PORTSDIR}/x11/kdebase \
kcalc:${PORTSDIR}/misc/kdeutils \
kmahjongg:${PORTSDIR}/games/kdegames \
kghostview:${PORTSDIR}/graphics/kdegraphics \
kmail:${PORTSDIR}/net/kdenetwork \
kmedia:${PORTSDIR}/audio/kdemultimedia
This means that it will try to build the kdelibs, kdebase, kdeutils,
kdegames, kdegraphics, and kdemultimedia port. This will take a LONG time
to download all the dependencies for non-KDE ports if you don't have them
less yet the KDE tarballs. :-)
If you want to just try it out I would suggest trying the kdebase port.
That has the following dependencies:
LIB_DEPENDS= gif\\.[23]\\.:${PORTSDIR}/graphics/giflib \
jpeg\\.9\\.:${PORTSDIR}/graphics/jpeg \
kdecore\\.1\\.[0-9]:${PORTSDIR}/x11/kdelibs \
kdeui\\.1\\.[0-9]:${PORTSDIR}/x11/kdelibs \
jscript\\.0\\.9[0-9]:${PORTSDIR}/x11/kdelibs \
khtmlw\\.1\\.[0-9]:${PORTSDIR}/x11/kdelibs \
kfm\\.1\\.[0-9]:${PORTSDIR}/x11/kdelibs \
mediatool\\.1\\.[0-9]:${PORTSDIR}/x11/kdelibs
You'll then need giflib (version .23), jpeg (version .9) and the kdelibs
port.
This will get you the base KDE system. You can then add the other bits as
you want/need them.
One other possible option is to use Wolfram Schneider's portcheckout
utility. I've attached it (it was JUST sent in to ports the other day,
but not as a PR AFAIK). It will fetch a port and all of its dependencies
that you don't have. Note I have not tried this yet.
Good luck.
Brett

Subject: Portcheckout script
[ The following text is in the "ISO-8859-1" character set. ]
[ Your display is set for the "US-ASCII" character set. Some ]
[ characters may be displayed incorrectly. ]
I wrote a script to check out a FreeBSD port *and* all runtime and
buildtime depending ports into the current working directory. The
output is written to stdout as an executable shell-script.
Here is the manpage and the script.
NAME
portcheckout - checkout ports and all depending ports
SYNOPSIS
portcheckout ports [...]
DESCRIPTION
Portcheckout(1) checks out a FreeBSD port and all runtime and buildtime
depending ports into the current working directory. The output is
written to stdout as an executable shell-script.
Compiling a FreeBSD usually require a full tree of ports in /usr/port. A
cvs checkout or a cvs update command takes a very long time and need
much free space.
With portcheckout, you checkout only the parts of the port tree which
you really need. This is a magnitude faster!
FILES
Portcheckout depend on a an up to date INDEX file in /usr/ports/INDEX.
EXAMPLE
$cd /tmp || exit 1
PORTSDIR="/tmp/ports"; export PORTSDIR
# checkout ports
# gnuplot-340
cvs co ports/math/gnuplot
# checkout depencies
# png-1.0.2
cvs co ports/graphics/png
# gd-1.3
cvs co ports/graphics/gd
# Compile and install gnuplot-340
(cd ports/math/gnuplot && make all install clean)
