One thing to keep in mind, is that doing a "make deinstall" on the meta-port doesn't actually deinstall all of the kde ports. (I wish it did). You'll have to manually go through and de-install all of the kde stuff one by one. PIB in the ports collection, may assist you with this endevor. -Chris On Tue, 16 Nov 1999, Juha Saarinen wrote: > > Ah, I forgot about that problem.
