I've used the ports collection and it works all fine and dandy and I use it for everything else I install. But I want to track KDE via cvsup like I do with FreeBSD, mainly to catch small but annoying fixes between major source releases. The problem is I followed the instructions at kde.org for cvsup and I still can't get it to compile. I figured there's got to be someone here that is doing this already, and maybe could point out something I did wrong.
