Well, I've successfully got KDE2.2 installed, so I figured that I would post what I had to do so the archive might help someone. I ended up having to 1)install portsdb, 2)pkg_delete'ing all kde packages, 3)make install on kdelibs2 4)make install on kde2 After that, everything seemed to work fine, until I locked my screen. Then I discovered that I couldn't unlock it. After searching the kde mailing list archives, I found out that setting the setuid bit on /usr/local/bin/kcheckpass would fix the problem. Does anyone have any comments on this? Also, root cannot log into kde, and it was able to before I upgraded/reinstalled. I haven't looked into that too much, as I only su to root, but it's still annoying that it's broke and I'll try to find out why during my copious spare time... >Date: Tue, 28 Aug 2001 14:17:23 -0700 > Kent Stewart <kstewart@urx.com> Jason Andresen <jandrese@mitre.org>CC: Steve Dobbs <sdobbs@stupid.com>, stable@freebsd.org > Re: KDE2.2 build problems > > >Jason Andresen wrote: >> >> Steve Dobbs wrote: >> > >> > Ok, I have installed portsupgrade, and ran it like you suggested.
