IMHO its better when doing such a massive switch to either a) delete all the ports from your system and start from scratch or b) leave the kde stuff and delete the ones you don't use during your normal cleaning cycle. -- Eitan Adler ___ 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"

Re: from GNOME to KDE
Oh, well, what I did was get out of my X entirely to console mode, then pkg_delete 'qt*' 'kde*' and then build it from ports. This worked great, and my experience trying to do that sort of thing piecemeal has not been good. Alternatively you could set an alternate prefix for the new QT and then try to get KDE to use the alternate prefix as its load library location but my record trying that sort of thing has not been good.

It built it fine here.

You should be able to find links to packages from http://www.kde.org/ To get it on FreeBSD, just use ports.
