I started over after pkg_deleting and cleaning. I did a pkg_info and
grep kde to find out what was there and used to that build a kderm
shell script. I only followed the ports that I knew had changed.
Everything else had been built clean when I installed 2.1 just after
it was released. From the ports, I knew what depended on the lower
ports and built up to head of the kde-2.1 tree.

When I did the install, the packages weren't there and you have an
alternative. If it takes two days to build it, you have to consider
what you do. If I build qt and kde, it takes about 2-3 hours. If you
add XFree86, it takes around another hour. I think my slowest computer
takes that long just to do XFree86.
