Apparently, pkg_add loads compiled versions only (right?). Anyway, I should have been cd'ing to the particular port, then 'make install clean'. Since I had previously followed the handbook regarding the makeworld/kernel process to take a 4-6-release disk to 4-stable (currently 4-8-stable), all the sources were loaded and the ports were previously installed. This made the package/port loading fairly quick. Thanks to Joshua Lokken for pointing out my procedural error. cheers, Torben Torben Brosten wrote: > After installing a text-based development environment via /stand/sysinstall > (followed by CVSup, makeworld/kernel etc to 4-8-stable), I realize I > want to > install KDE, too. > > I initiated this with: > > pkg_add -r kdebase > > followed again by CVSup etc. > > Apparently that wasn't enough.
