FWIW, this may be of help.

I had KDE2 installed. Before installing KDE3 I used pkg_deinstall to remove
all the different packages of KDE2. The initial install of KDE3 went 
without a hitch
much to my surprise...

A few weeks later port upgrades became available and I tried to use the
portupgrade program to update KDE3 but I was bombing out in the
kdelibs stage too.

Since I had XFCE up and running (and really liking it!) I decided to try and
wipe out KDE3 and install it all over again. That didn't work either as I was
bombing out with messages like this:

Google searches turned up nothing useful either.

I noticed that QT2 was still installed on my system as was the arts pkg,
an audio system for the KDE desktop. When I went to pkg_deinstall QT2
it complained about licq (and another dependent licq package that needed
QT2). I went ahead and pkg_deinstalled them, then the arts package, then QT2.
I even went ahead and pkg_deinstalled QT3 for good measure.

After that KDE3 installed without a hitch. I don't claim to 
understand why it worked
but it did.

HTH.

Regards,
Jim
