No problem. I saw the message:
===> kdelibs-3.2.3_1 conflicts with installed package(s):
kdebase-3.1.2
They install files into the same place.
Please remove them first with pkg_delete(1).
*** Error code 1
but it seemed misleading because I thought that portupgrade(1)
pkg_delete-ed the old version (after first backing up the files) -
obviously not.

Yes, I'd searched the mailing lists (for KDE problems, not XFree86) but
didn't find anything that seemd relevant, although after your reply some
of them make sense now.

Delete kde-libs surely?
Is this a limitation/shortcoming/bug of portupgrade(1)? Is the whole
point of it ot that it handles, often complex, dependencies for you?
Thanks for the reply.
