Ha - I *thought* something like that (as kde4 is a metaport).
An option would be to remove all kde4 related stuff by pkg_delete
and then use the obvious "make install" for the metaport,
resulting in installing the current versions of the metaport's
component and the dependencies (if also removed).

Entry 20090804 comes with an example:
# pkg_delete -f phonon-4\* phonon-gstreamer\* kdebase-\*4\* kdepim-4\*
# portmaster -a (or portupgrade -a)
# cd ${PORTSDIR}/x11/kde4 && make config && make install clean
I'm not sure if the OP's binary packages were from 8.0-RELEASE
or already newer (e. g. obtained via pkg_add -r from Latest/).

Okay, I think I basically understand. :-) First of all, I think you mean to DE-install the installed packages, not RE-install them. In oder to install KDE from ports, you need to removed the currently installed software (no matter if it has initially been installed by packages or ports). The de-installation of installed software can be done with pkg_delete, or with "make deinstall" from the ports infra- structure. In order to do the last thing, you would do something like this: # cd /usr/ports/x1/kde4 # make # make deinstall # make reinstall This procedure would first compile all the stuff, then remove the existing installation, and finally installing the just compiled new software. See if you need "make config-recursive", too; see "man 7 ports" for details. There's one thing I'm not sure about, maybe someone else could explain this: KDE4 as in /usr/ports/x1/kde4 is a so called meta-port. If someone does "make deinstall" for a meta-port, will it run "make deinstall" on all its parts (which are ports)? If you're using a port & package management tool, such as portmaster, portupgrade or portmanager, I think the solution is much easier: # portupgrade -Rf kde4 See "man portupgrade" for details. The portupgrade program acts as a "front-end" to the ports infrastructure, and so controls the "make", "make install", "make clean" and so on steps. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

Not fully correct.
The directory /usr/ports/distfiles/ does not contain packages.
It contains distribution files, those are usually archives
full of source code and other resources that a port needs to
be processed.
To the OP:
If you've already installed KDE4 from packages, the step "make"
in the KDE4 ports directory will first generate KDE, and the
step "make install" will install it. You have to deinstall
("make deinstall") your KDE (from packages) first. To the
system, it doesn't matter if a program has been installed
from ports or packages; packages can be seen as precompiled
and compressed ports, while ports "per se" are the material
to create the programs (sources, resources, images, and so
on).
If you want to create packages from a port (or maybe package)
you already have installed, use "make package". This will
generate a compressed archive in /usr/ports/packages/ subtree.
You can install those packages on other systems, for example,
without the need for compiling or fetching (a good solution
for off-line operations).
If this wasn't the answer you were searchig for, try to ask
in a more precise way. :-)
