Hello.

I am looking for advice on what I have = done=20 wrong. I installed FreeBSD v4.2 from scratch (using the developer=20 distribution plus compat22 and compat3x) on two new boxes; used cvs to = update=20 all of the ports.

I then installed XFree86-4 using the = ports; then=20 installed KDE2 (again the ports); and then KDevelop (you guessed it the=20 ports). At this point everything was working great!

I then installed KDBG 1.2 (from the = ports) which=20 installed KDELibs and KDEBase (from their respective ports = directories). =20 The install went fine, no errors.

However, my KDE is now back to the = 1.1.2 version=20 (sort of) since only KDELibs and KDEBase were installed. Not = everything=20 works. My KDE 2.1 is where?

Should I have installed KDBG = first? Then=20 KDE2.1? I notice that KDE 1.1.2 is gone from the port listing on = the=20 web. But KDBG is still around. Given the bulid time required = for=20 XFree86 and KDE 2.1 I would rather not rebuild all over; however, if = that is=20 what will solve this problem then I will.

Any advice? Thanks in = advance!

David.
