| For pkg_delete you have to use the complete port name including

| pkg_delete qt1-1.45_1
Or just pkg_delete 'qt*'

Actually, globbing works just fine with native pkg_delete as well.
Though the number of even very experienced people who don't know that
pkg_delete and pkg_info is surprisigly large, so I suspect that it's a
relatively recent feature.
As for meke deinstall, you know that the sequence would be
cd /usr/ports/*/kde2
make deinstall
or something to that effect, right?
What happens when you try that?
