I've upgraded KDE 3.2->3.3 and now X won't run. It starts and displays
the message "Could not start kdeinit. Check your installation." in a
undecorated window with an OK button which, when clicked, exits X. In
the console it shows:

OK, so I need to install libXinerama, no problem - or so I thought.
There ia no 5-current package available yet so I tried building the
port, but:
===> libXinerama-1.0.2 depends on file:
/usr/X11R6/libdata/pkgconfig/xext.pc - not found

===> xextensions-1.0.1_2 conflicts with installed package(s):
XFree86-libraries-4.3.0_7
They install files into the same place.
Please remove them first with pkg_delete(1).

Hmmm, if I delete XFree86-libraries then X won't run, and without
libXinerama.so.1 KDE won't run :-/
Anyone have a solution to this conundrum please?
My ports tree is up to date and I'm running
