Hello.

I am looking for advice on what I have done wrong.  I installed FreeBSD =
v4.2 from scratch (using the developer distribution plus compat22 and =
compat3x) on two new boxes; used cvs to update all of the ports.

I then installed XFree86-4 using the ports; then installed KDE2 (again =
the ports); and then KDevelop (you guessed it the ports).  At this point =
everything was working great!

I then installed KDBG 1.2 (from the ports) which installed KDELibs and =
KDEBase (from their respective ports directories).  The install went =
fine, no errors.

However, my KDE is now back to the 1.1.2 version (sort of) since only =
KDELibs and KDEBase were installed.  Not everything works.  My KDE 2.1 =
is where?

Should I have installed KDBG first?  Then KDE2.1?  I notice that KDE =
1.1.2 is gone from the port listing on the web.  But KDBG is still =
around.  Given the bulid time required for XFree86 and KDE 2.1 I would =
rather not rebuild all over; however, if that is what will solve this =
problem then I will.

Any advice?  Thanks in advance!

David.
