I appreciate that you want to clean up old KDE2 ports, but I think
you're being rather too aggressive about it.  The usual procedure that
is followed here is to mark the port FORBIDDEN for a few months and
see if anyone comes forward with an update.  If no-one does after that
time period has elapsed, then we know it's really unsupported by the
ports community and can delete it.
