Since I had a fresh install of KDE on the system, I was going thru the
installed KDE applicaions to see what they were like. When I came=20
across kpackage, I saw that it listed the installed ports, and their
version status.
I don't plan to use it to manage the installed ports.

I saw that in the kpackage options, and while I had a quick look at
kpackage/fbsdInterface.cpp, I wasn't sure where to patch a fix for it.
My best guess is that "INDEX" should be replaced by ${INDEXFILE} in that fi=
le.
